Stefi Cohen impressed in her pro boxing debut.

Stefi Cohen just scored a knockout victory in her professional boxing debut. The powerlifter has made the transition well to the squared circle and is just getting her boxing journey started.

It seems that everyone is getting into boxing these days. Logan and Jake Paul have made the transition over to the squared circle fairly well. Their presence there isn’t without its criticism though. Much of their exposure and notoriety comes from the fact that they’re social media personalities. But not everyone entering boxing is created equal.

Powerlifter Stefi Cohen has made the leap over to boxing herself, but she’s doing things the old fashioned way. Rather than face off against another powerlifter, Stefi has chosen to fight other women boxers with some experience and boxing knowledge under their belt.

At a recent boxing event in the Dominican Republic, Mundo Boxing’s “Night of Knockouts”, Stefi made her pro boxing debut. Stefi has decided to forgo amateur boxing and get right into the nitty gritty. She faced off with an experienced boxer in Haydee Zapa who had a 4-3 record heading into their contest.

A Successful Debut

Stefi Cohen would prove that she belongs in the ring.

After three rounds of battle, Stefi Cohen would close the show with a wild flurry of punches, bringing her opponent down and forcing her corner to throw in the towel. Below you can see how the end unfolded.

Stefi Cohen will next do battle in the undercard of Hafthor Bjornsson vs Eddie Hall. There she will face off against undefeated boxer Avril Mathie who holds a 5-0-1 record.

Stefi Cohen will have her work cut out for her in this match. The confidence of an undefeated fighter with six bouts under their belt cannot be underestimated. If Stefi isn’t prepared she could face some serious consequences against Mathie. That said, it’s great to see that Stefi is taking her boxing journey seriously and doing things the right what.

Will you be tuning in to see Stefi Cohen fight on the Hafthor Bjornsson vs Eddie Hall undercard?
