Undisputed Champion Tina Rupprecht Announces Pregnancy, Retires From Boxing

She is the first German to hold the WBO, WBA, WBC and IBF titles at the same time.

Overview

  • Rupprecht, 33, revealed her pregnancy and her exit from active competition at the Bayerischer Sportpreis gala in Munich.
  • She said a return to the ring after becoming a mother is not planned for now.
  • In April 2025 in Potsdam, she outpointed previously unbeaten Sumire Yamanaka to unify the atomweight division and retain The Ring recognition.
  • She steps away as the reigning undisputed atomweight titleholder across all four major sanctioning bodies.
  • Calling her 21-year career her life’s work, she noted a 2018 minimumweight world title, a 2023 title loss, and a 2024 move down that led to multiple belts before unification.
