Alycia Baumgardner, born in 1994 in Fremont, Ohio, is an American professional boxer known as 'The Bomb.' She took the WBC and IBO super featherweight titles from Terri Harper in November 2021, then outpointed Mikaela Mayer in London on October 15, 2022 — a split decision — to add the WBO, IBF and The Ring titles. On February 4, 2023, in New York, she knocked Elhem Mekhaled down twice and won a unanimous decision (99–89, 99–89, 98–90, per the Sporting News) for the vacant WBA belt, completing the undisputed super featherweight championship. She defended the undisputed crown against Christina Linardatou in July 2023, avenging her only defeat; her September 27, 2024, defense against Delfine Persoon was ruled a no contest after an accidental head clash cut Persoon. She retained the undisputed title against Jennifer Miranda by unanimous decision on July 11, 2025, then vacated the WBC belt in September 2025 — FightNews reports she vacated over the WBC's rule against 12-round, three-minute-round fights — and defended her remaining IBF, WBO and WBA titles over 12 three-minute rounds against Leila Beaudoin on December 19, 2025, and against Bo Mi Re Shin on April 17, 2026, both by unanimous decision, standing 18–1 with 7 knockouts and 1 no contest as the record sources state it.

Notes

Sports Encyclopedia roster CTL-SPE-0509. Title-picture disposition (dated, never a bare present claim): undisputed super featherweight champion from February 4, 2023; the Mayer win (October 15, 2022) supplied the WBO, IBF and Ring belts and the Mekhaled win the final WBA belt — the sequence is stated in that order. After September 2025 she is NOT described as undisputed: she vacated the WBC belt that month (FightNews attributes the vacancy to the WBC's prohibition on 12-round/3-minute-round women's fights) and thereafter held IBF, WBO and WBA titles, defended against Beaudoin (December 19, 2025) and Shin (April 17, 2026). No 'LeBlanc draw' appears in any source consulted: the 2024 Persoon bout was a no contest, not a draw, and the December 2025 opponent was Leila Beaudoin, beaten by unanimous decision — the roster shorthand is not carried. Birth-date variance: Wikipedia gives May 27, 1994; some secondary profiles give May 24, 1994 — the description carries the year only. Curator's Judgment (DRAFT): Baumgardner's record is the division's center of gravity from 2021 on, and her WBC vacancy is itself the story — a champion giving up a belt over round format rather than an opponent.
