Frida Wallberg (born April 28, 1983) is a Swedish former professional boxer who competed between 2004 and 2013. She held the WBC female super-featherweight title from 2010 to 2013. Wallberg is a member of the International Women's Boxing Hall of Fame.

Career

[edit]

As an amateur, she won 48 of 53 matches before she turned pro in 2004. She has won the Nordic championship two times and the Swedish championship six times and, as a professional on 27 November 2010, Frida defeated the Canadian boxer Olivia Gerula for the WBC belt.[1][2]

In June 2013, Wallberg was knocked out by Australian boxer Diana Prazak, suffering a cerebral hemorrhage. Wallberg was treated at Karolinska Institutet for the damage. The doctors successfully drained the blood.[3] Over a month later she revealed in an interview that she had suffered complications from the knock out and she had no long-term plans for the future besides to rehabilitate and recover.[4]

She was inducted into the International Women's Boxing Hall of Fame in 2025.[5][6]
