|Big-time boxing is coming to Doncaster, and local fans get first dibs on tickets!
On Friday, May 23, the Eco-Power Stadium will play host to a huge night of world-class boxing, with Terri Harper defending her WBO lightweight title against Germany’s Natalie Zimmermann. This blockbuster event, promoted by GBM Sports, will feature a stacked card, including several fighters from Doncaster, making it a must-watch for local fans.
Let’s break down what you need to know – from the fights to how you can get your hands on tickets before everyone else.

Terri Harper Looks to Add Another Big Win
Terri Harper, from Denaby Main, is already a three-weight world champion, but she isn’t stopping there. She’s aiming to collect even more belts at lightweight and solidify her place among the best female boxers in British history.
Her opponent, Natalie Zimmermann, will be coming to the UK looking to spoil Harper’s homecoming fight. But with a stadium full of local support behind her, Harper will be fired up to put on a show.
A Big Night for Doncaster Fighters
It’s not just Harper who will be representing South Yorkshire on the night. A host of Doncaster-based fighters are set to step into the ring, bringing an extra layer of excitement for local fans.
Here’s who else is on the card:
- Maxi Hughes (Rossington) vs. Archie Sharp – Hughes, a former world title contender, is looking to climb back up the rankings. But he’ll have his hands full with the highly-rated Archie Sharp.
- Jimmy Joe Flint (Bentley) vs. Haithem Laamouz – Flint is chasing his first international title as he fights for the IBO continental super lightweight crown against Malta’s Laamouz.
- Reece Mould (Woodlands) vs. Lewis Sylvester – Expect fireworks when Mould takes on Hull’s Lewis Sylvester in what could be the fight of the night.
- Tysie Gallagher vs. Ebonie Jones – Gallagher will be defending both her British and Commonwealth super bantamweight titles, with more fights still to be announced.
With so much local talent in action, this is shaping up to be one of the biggest boxing events ever held in Doncaster.
