Turhan vs Baumgardner results: Alycia Baumgardner became a two-weight world champion in Texas on Sunday. The American took the IBF lightweight world title by winning all 10 rounds against the dangerous Elif Nur Turhan. Check out the Turhan vs Baumgardner report below.
In addition, Baumgardner remains the unified super featherweight champion. Her last defence of the IBF and WBO straps came in April. She won widely on points against Bo Mi Re Shin. Meanwhile, Turhan was coming off a close win on the cards against Gabriela Tellez in June.
Overall, Baumgardner was simply dominant in this one, hammering Turhan from the start. She picked the visitor apart as she swung and missed on several occasions.
The champion was hurt as early as the third, with straight shots proving her undoing. The fourth saw Baumgardner peppering her opponent with the jab.
Turhan did land with an uppercut in the fifth, but the jab of the challenger was allowing her to dominate proceedings.
The Turk was too wild in her approach. As a result, Baumgardner could measure what she had to offer, and counter to great effect. With Turhan tiring, she kept on her jab and the one-sided traffic continued.
A body shot landed for Baumgardner in the ninth. She then closed the show magnificently, shaking off a shot from the champion. Finally, she used the jab one more time as the fight reached the final bell.
