The undisputed atomweight champion, Tina Rupprecht, has announced her retirement from boxing at the age of 33.
Rupprecht (15-1-1, 3 KOs) has decided to hang up his gloves at the peak of his career, holding all four belts in the 102-pound category.
The German boxer conquered titles in two divisions, including the WBC title in strawweight. In addition, she made history by becoming the first undisputed German champion, male or female, in the four-belt era.
The news was confirmed by Rupprecht herself last Saturday during the Bavarian Sports Awards in Munich, where she was awarded as Boxer of the Year. She also took the opportunity to announce that she is expecting her first child with her husband, Markus Fritschi.
My boxing career has officially ended.

Rupprecht also added:
I am starting a new chapter in my life. I feel it’s the perfect moment. I have reached a place where I always wanted to be, even much higher. Now, I am finished.

Although I will no longer be active in the ring, my love and passion for this sport will always remain. I want to share my experiences through exciting conferences, workshops, and other projects.
