Career
[edit]Robinson, who took up boxing to improve her fitness,[1] fought Lani Daniels for the vacant IBF female light heavyweight title at McKay Stadium, Whangārei, New Zealand, on 2 December 2023, but lost by majority decision.[2]
Just over a year later, on 13 December 2024, she made her second bid to become a world champion, taking on Kaye Scott for the vacant IBF female middleweight title at The Star Event Centre, Sydney, Australia. Despite fighting on a fractured foot sustained in training camp, Robinson emerged as the winner by unanimous decision.[3][4]
Robinson became a unified female middleweight world champion when she defended her IBF belt and claimed the vacant WBO title with a unanimous decision win over Chloe Chaos at The Melbourne Pavilion, Kensington, New South Wales, Australia, on 11 April 2025.[5]
She signed with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions in July 2025.[6]
