    The youngest member of Mea Motu's training team has a message for her rivals as the Kiwi boxer chases world title unification

    The youngest member of Mea Motu's training team has a message for her rivals as the Kiwi boxer chases world title unification


    The Peach Boxing star defended her IBO super bantamweight title for the second time - dominating on her way to a unanimous points win over India's Chandni Mehra in Whangarei.

    Motu has her sights set on IBF belt holder Ellie Scotney - who's promoted by Matchroom Boxing's Eddie Hearn.

    Eight-year-old Zen Peach - son of Peach Boxing head coach Isaac Peach - helps train Motu - and had this to say after last night's fight - on Sky Arena.



    Lani Daniels became a two-weight division world champion - earning a majority decision over Australian Desley Robinson, while Jerome Pampellone scored a first round knockout win over Mexican Rogelio Medina .
