I saw most of this fight on German satellite tv. I thought it was a poor performance from Menzer, she got caught too often, but not by real strong punches. (although she did get a bit marked on the face) In the end, I thought she did just enough to win, but if the verdict had gone the other way, I wouldn't have complained. Njeri is young, I believe, and showed no sign of nerves at all.

I agree Martin. Although I must make Menzer a compliment: she hung in there and appreared less insecure than usual. Of course she is being punched by a bantamweight, so there wasn't much risk. I would like to see Schouten next, but I wouldn't be surprised if Menzer takes a step down from Fatuma. They called it a mandatory match on TV so.....
Fatuma improves every fight and it would be great to see her fight Cooper. I know she is available. Plus Ivanona is available as well. That secures Coopers next 2 fights if they are interested.
