Desley Robinson (born 23 March 1988) is an Australian professional boxer. She is a unified world champion having held the IBF female middleweight title since December 2024 and the WBO title in the same division since April 2025.
Career
Robinson, who took up boxing to improve her fitness,[1] fought Lani Daniels for the vacant IBF female light heavyweight title at McKay Stadium, Whangārei, New Zealand, on 2 December 2023, but lost by majority decision.[2]
Just over a year later, on 13 December 2024, she made her second bid to become a world champion, taking on Kaye Scott for the vacant IBF female middleweight title at The Star Event Centre, Sydney, Australia. Despite fighting on a fractured foot sustained in training camp, Robinson emerged as the winner by unanimous decision.[3][4]
Robinson became a unified female middleweight world champion when she defended her IBF belt and claimed the vacant WBO title with a unanimous decision win over Chloe Chaos at The Melbourne Pavilion, Kensington, New South Wales, Australia, on 11 April 2025.[5]
She signed with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions in July 2025.[6]
