Leila Beaudoin (born 28 March 1996) is a Canadian professional boxer. She challenged for the IBF, WBO and WBA female super-featherweight titles in 2025.
Career
[edit]A downhill skier, Beaudoin was introduced to boxing as part of her cardio training.[3] She started boxing with L'École de boxe olympique de Rivière-du-Loup.[4] She had her first competitive bout in May 2013, going on to have a successful amateur career which included winning a national championship.[3]
Beaudoin turned professional in 2019, defeating Tereza Dvorakova by unanimous decision over four rounds in her pro-debut at Complexe Capitale Helicoptere in Quebec City on 25 October that year.[5]
Having amassed a record of 11 wins and one defeat, she faced Lizbeth Crespo for the vacant WBO International female super-featherweight title at Centre Videotron in Quebec City on 17 August 2024, winning the contest via unanimous decision to claim her first championship in the paid ranks.[6][7]
Beaudoin successfully defended her title at the same venue on 27 June 2025, by stopping former WBC interim female super-featherweight champion, Elhem Mekhaled, in the sixth round.[8][9]
Beaudoin was scheduled to challenge IBF, WBO and WBA female super-featherweight champion Alycia Baumgardner at the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida, on the undercard of the Jake Paul vs. Gervonta Davis fight on 14 November 2025.[10] However, the event was cancelled less than two weeks before it was set to take place due Davis' legal issues.[11][12] The contest was rescheduled to take place at the same venue on 19 December 2025 as part of the undercard of the Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua fight.[13] Beaudoin lost the bout, which unlike most women's championship fights was contested over 12 three-minute rounds, by unanimous decision.[14][15]
Beaudoin is scheduled to face Paulina Ángel for the vacant interim WBA female super-featherweight title at Théâtre Capitole in Quebec City on 11 June 2026.[16]
