The CAI CommunityWorld Boxing Council (WBC) Super Featherweight title is on the line. Alycia Baumgardner (15-1, 7 KOs) is set to defend her title against veteran boxer Delfine Persoon (48-3, 19 KOs) in Atlanta on Friday.

The fight will mark Baumgardner's first since July 15, 2023, when she successfully defended her undisputed world super featherweight title against Christina Linardatou in a unanimous decision. It was later revealed that Baumgardner tested positive for two banned substances — mesterolone and methenolone acetate metabolites — ahead of the July fight against Linardatou.

Following an investigation, the WBC ruled in January that Baumgarner was "not guilty of intentional ingestion or consumption of a banned substance for performance enhancement purposes," clearing the way for her to fight on Friday.

Baumgardner will face a formidable opponent in Persoon, a 39-year-old veteran that has over 50 fights to her name. Persoon held the International Boxing Federation (IBF) Lightweight title in 2012 and the WBC Lightweight title from 2014 to 2019.
