The Gym Rat's Prediction

Pick

Sandy Ryan

Reasoning

Both of these ladies are 32 years old, yet there is a stark difference in the experiences and results they have achieved in their pro careers. The fact that in back-to-back fights, Zamora travelled to Canada to upset the hotly favoured Jessica Kamara and then flew to England to face Brazil’s former Olympic gold medallist, Beatriz Ferreira, only to lose on a points decision, shows the grit and toughness that define her. In Ryan, she faces a fighter who was expected to win a world title and rule supreme, having had a stellar amateur career, and with a win over Terry Harper, the current WBO world lightweight champion, alongside two highly contentious losses to American Michaela Mayer. The feeling is that Zamora has never quite achieved the level of Ryan, and despite her toughness, that should see her through to the final bell. It should be a straightforward win for the Derbyshire, England girl.
