Terri Harper, the WBC and IBO super featherweight champion, broke her arm while defending the titles in her latest appearance against Katharina Thanderz. Despite that, she successfully won the fight by stopping Thanderz in round 9.
Still to taste defeat in the pro circuit, Harper is already being billed amongst the veterans. Apart from showcasing a clinical stint, she has also displayed a champion mindset by overcoming the physical adversary.

That said, Matchroom director Eddie Hearn is also pleased with ‘Blender’. He took to social media to applaud Harper for her unparalleled in-ring effort.
