Promoter Dmitriy Salita proudly announces the signing of undefeated women’s unified world middleweight champion Christina Hammer to a multi-fight promotional contract.
Already a superstar in Europe, “ליידי האמר” (22-0, 10 קוס), from Dortmund, גרמניה, (via Novodolinka, קזחסטן) is the current WBC and WBO Middleweight Champion. She has also previously held the WBF Middleweight, as well as WBO and WBF Super Middleweight Championships.
Under Salita’s promotional direction, Hammer will make her United States boxing debut on יום שישי, ינואר 12, בקזינו סטון Resort הפיכה בוורונה, ניו יורק, on the non-televised undercard of a ShoBox: הדור החדש שִׁדוּר בְּטֵלֵוִיזִיָה (10 p.m. ו/PT), featuring unified Women’s Super Middleweight World Champion Claressa Shields’ WBC and IBF title defense against mandatory challenger Tori Nelson. Hammer is scheduled for a 10-round fight, highlights of which will be shown on SHOWTIME.
“I never had any doubt that my manager Harald Pia and I would reach an agreement,” said a happy Hammer of the signing. “I love the U.S.,” היא המשיכה. “If you are successful here, you will be successful everywhere. Since the beginning of my boxing career it has been a dream of mine to fight in the U.S.. אני לא יכול לחכות ל ינואר 12.”
Hammer joins the Salita Promotions roster that also includes women’s superstar, unified super middleweight champion and two-time gold medalist Claressa Shields, as well as world, אירופאי (2X) ורוסי (6X) amateur champion and 2012 אולימפי, אלנה סווליבה.
“Christina has all the tools to become a star in the U.S.,” אמר דמיטריי סליטא. “Her skills, personality and appeal outside the ring make Christina a unique and special fighter in the talent-filled middleweight division. אני מאמין 2018 is going to be a historic year for women’s boxing all over the world.”
Hammer is a technically outstanding boxer, but her outstanding physical strength is what separates her from the rest of the world’s 160-pound fighters. She was voted WBF Female Fighter of the Year in 2011 ו 2013; the WBO Female Fighter of the Year in 2013; the BDB Female Boxer of the Year in 2016; the HERQUL Female Boxer of the Year in 2017 and is the only woman in Europe to earn the Diamond Ring of the WBO.

Christina is very happy to be fighting in the U.S. It is a dream of hers to be successful over here and she can’t wait to show the U.S. public who Christina Hammer is!”
