Professional career
In March 2007, Sanders defended her IBA middleweight title against Valerie Mahfood, this would end up being the last women's world title fight on English-language television in the U.S for 10 years.[2] In a highly anticipated bout in 2008 with Holly Holm, a fight in which Sanders was favored to win, Holm won via decision. The two had a rematch four months later and fought to a draw.[3] It was the last time Sanders fought. Her record is 25 wins, 8 by knockout, with 1 defeat, and 1 draw.
