One of Sweden’s top domestic Muay Thai promotions, Empire Fighting Series, have been announcing some huge fights for their next event in April.
Today, they revealed another full Thai rules female Muay Thai bout for the pay-per-view event scheduled for 10th April.
Swedish Muay Thai champion Johanna Persson is set to face Lauren “Little K” Kertesz in an A-Class bout set for -51kg.
Persson, of Gëfle Fight Camp, is unbeaten in her Muay Thai career.
After entering her first Swedish National championship last year, she beat Jessica Pettersson to win gold in the -48kg category.
Her only fight since then was against Lauren Kertesz, where she took away a split decision win in their B-Class bout at TMT Fightday 4 in September 2020.
