Swede Lina Akthar Länsberg (3-1) will face Alexandra Buch (8-3) in front of her home crowd in Malmö on May 16th. Superior Challenge 12 will feature the decorated Muay Thai fighter face the visiting German for the first ever bantamweight belt.
Länsberg has won her last three matches. The 33 year old won her last two matches by TKO with the Cage Warriors promotion, most recently versus Laura Howarth in August.
“Both athletes have a striking martial arts background and are very motivated for this match. We invite the Malmo audience to watch Europe’s best female match so far on May 16 at the Baltiska hallen.” – Superior Group International CEO Babak Aghavali
Buch is 35 years old and was on a three fight winning streak before losing to another Nordic fighter in Maria Hougaard Djursaa in November of 2013.
