Career

While studying film and French at Northwestern University, Curry joined a Muay Thai group, but when she was unable to get matched for a fight, she turned to boxing and entered the Chicago Golden Gloves instead, going on to have 30 amateur bouts. [2]

After campaigning at middleweight and accruing a professional record of seven wins and one loss, Curry moved up to super-middleweight to fight future world champion Shadasia Green on the undercard of Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, on 5 August 2023. [3] She lost the 10-round bout by unanimous decision. [4]

Returning to middleweight, her next fight was against Melody Popravak at Miccosukee Indian Gaming Resort in Miami, Florida, on 27 April 2024. The six-round encounter ended in a split draw. [5]

Curry is due to face Kaye Scott for the vacant WBC and WBA female middleweight titles at Fox Theater in Detroit, Michigan, on 19 September 2025. [2] [6]

Personal life

Outside of boxing, Curry works as a professional film editor and director for a production company in Chicago. [6]
