Alycia Baumgardner defeated stalwart Bo Mi Re Shin with a unanimous decision to retain her unified junior lightweight title, but she has her sights set on Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano.
The American was the clear favorite against Sheen, and he brought that confidence into the match from the bell.
It was never going to be easy, and Shin fought back to challenge Baumgardner in rounds six and seven, but nothing she threw could land.

Alycia Baumgardner has given up on the possibility of a fight with Caroline Dubois following her win over Bo Mi Re Shin. Instead, the boxer called out Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano
Baumgardner won 98-92, 98-92, 99-91, but her five-year knockout drought continued despite her record reaching 18-1.
“Listen, three minutes, ten rounds, baby stop playing with me while I’m on my period,” Baumgardner said after the fight.
“I feel comfortable, it’s an adjustment every time, and three minutes is a long time, so I’m still learning and growing.
“I don’t know everything, but I’m okay with that. You just go back and keep getting better.”
But Baumgardner isn’t one to shy away from a big fight as she has her sights set on who she’s going to fight and who she doesn’t want to fight next.
“Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano, how’s it going,” she added before firing Caroline DuBois Even though the British called her out.
“I’m a piranha, that’s a guppy, get her out of here,” Baumgardner said.
If a fight happens with Taylor, it will be soon, as discussions are ongoing for the Irishwoman’s farewell fight – which she hopes will take place at Croke Park.
A distraught Green was carried off the court on a stretcher.
The biggest upset of the night was Lani Daniels’ ninth-round knockout victory over Shadasia Green, with the former IBF and WBO super middleweight champion having to be taken off on a stretcher.
Greene landed big punches in the first eight rounds and looked well on her way to winning, but by the end of round eight, she looked empty.
After the fight, Daniels came out firing in the next round, winning by TKO before referee Eric Darlow was forced to intervene at 0:32, becoming the new IBF, WBO and Ring super middleweight champion and world champion in three divisions.
The former champion was dealt a barrage of blows as soon as she left her corner after the match, and she was quickly taken away on a stretcher after the match, wincing in pain and appearing to have trouble standing.
Green was taken to the hospital for tests, and Daniels wished her well in a postgame interview before thanking her supporters around the world.
