Career

edit

Hill made her professional boxing debut on 5 March 2022, with a points victory over Vaida Masiokaite in a six-round contest held at Newark Showground in Nottinghamshire.[3]

Having amassed a record of four wins and one defeat, she took on Vicky Wilkinson for the vacant Commonwealth female super-featherweight title at The Hangar Events Venue in Wolverhampton on 15 September 2023 claiming the belt by unanimous decision.[4][5]

Hill made an unsuccessful bid to add the vacant WBC female super-featherweight International title to her résumé when she lost by unanimous decision to Turkey's Elif Nur Turhan in a contest held in Tetovo, Macedonia on 28 November 2023.[6]

She got back to winning ways in her next fight when she defended her Commonwealth title against former WBC female super-bantamweight champion Fatuma Zarika from Kenya at Winter Gardens in Blackpool on 11 May 2024, via split decision.[7][8][9]
