The countdown is on for the vacant WBA Lightweight World Title clash between Stephanie Han and Hannah Terlep, set for February 22 at County Coliseo in El Paso, Texas. With championship gold on the line, both fighters have a career-defining opportunity in what promises to be a thrilling main event under the King’s Promotions banner.

Han Aims to Shine at Home

El Paso’s own Stephanie Han, 34, has been steadily climbing the lightweight ranks, and now she finds herself on the brink of glory. Fighting in front of her hometown crowd, Han will look to capitalize on her momentum and claim the WBA’s top prize.

Her breakthrough moment came last July, when she secured the WBA International Lightweight Title with a victory over Miranda Reyes—a win that set the stage for this championship showdown. Now, she’s ready to take the final step and cement her status as world champion.

Terlep Seeks the Upset

Standing in her way is Hannah Terlep, also 34, a determined challenger from Aurora, Colorado. With a record of 5-1, Terlep’s lone defeat came last year at the hands of Chelsea Anderson, but she’s coming into this fight motivated and eager to turn the tables. Despite being the underdog on paper, a win here could completely change the trajectory of her career.

High Stakes, 10 Rounds for the Belt

Han enters the bout as the WBA’s No. 2-ranked lightweight, while Terlep sits at No. 10. Both fighters share the same dream of becoming world champion, but only one will emerge victorious after 10 hard-fought rounds.

With hometown pride, championship black and gold, and legacy on the line, fight fans in El Paso are in for a war.
