    PanARMENIAN.Net - Unified women's flyweight world champion Susi
    Kentikian will put her titles on the line against Melissa McMorrow on
    May 16 at Brandenburg Hall in Frankfurt, Germany, BoxingScene reported.

    Kentikian (29-0, 16 KOs) currently holds the WBA and WBO belts in
    addition to the WIBF 112-pound crown. Although the resident of Hamburg,
    Germany, via Yerevan, Armenia, is only 24 years old, this bout will
    mark her 15th world title defense of any sort. "The Killer Queen"
    is coming off a 10-round unanimous decision over Thailand's Teeraporn
    Pannimit last October.

    Meanwhile, "Mighty" McMorrow (6-3-3), a former New York state title
    champ, will be entering her second straight world championship bout.

    The 30-year-old from San Jose, Calif., dropped a controversial split
    decision to Arely Mucino last February in Mexico for the interim WBA
    crown that was on the line due to Kentikian's inactivity.

    To close the circle, Mucino challenged Kentikian two years ago, but
    their meeting was cut short after three rounds due to a headbutt that
    resulted in a cut over the Armenian-German's scalp. Two of the judges
    had it tied at the time of the stoppage, but the bout was eventually
    ruled a no-contest.
