Lauren Parker (born 5 June 1991) is an English professional boxer who is a former European female super-flyweight champion.
Parker made her professional boxing debut on 20 May 2018 at Corn Exchange in Bedford with a points win over Teodora Hristova in a four-round contest.[3]
She beat Mexico's Edna Maltos by unanimous decision to claim the vacant IBO female intercontinental super-flyweight belt at Rotherham's Magna Centre on 7 October 2022.[4][5]
In February 2023, Parker underwent spinal surgery for a career threatening back issue.[6]
After recovering, Parker returned to the ring at York Hall in London on 2 December 2023 where she defeated Italy's Giuseppina Di Stefano to win the vacant European female super-flyweight title.[7][8][9]
Returning to York Hall on 7 December 2024, she defeated Kira Carter by stoppage in the third round of their scheduled six-round contest.[10]
After having to vacate her European title due to being unable to defend it,[11] Parker challenged British and Commonwealth female super-flyweight champion Emma Dolan at York Hall on 4 April 2025.[12] She lost via unanimous decision.[13][14]
