Jasmine Artiga (born 5 April 1992) is an American professional boxer who has held the WBA female super-flyweight title since 22 March 2025.

Career

Having completed high school, Artiga played American football in the LFL for the Tampa Breeze[2][3] before taking up boxing aged 21.[2]

She turned professional in May 2017,[4] and compiled a record of 12 wins and a draw from her first 13 pro-fights.[5]

Artiga faced Regina Chavez for the vacant WBA female super-flyweight title at the NOS Events Center in San Bernardino, California on 22 March 2025.[6] She won via majority decision with two of the ringside judges scoring the fight 98–92 and 96–94 in her favour, while the third had it a 95–95 draw.[7][8]

On 27 May 2025, Artiga received a proclamation from the city of Tampa for being the first native-born professional boxer to win a major world title.[9]

She signed with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions in July 2025.[10]

Artiga made the first defense of her title against Linn Sandström at the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida, on 23 August 2025.[11] She won by stoppage in the third round.[12][13]

On 13 December 2025 at the same venue, Artiga successfully retained her title for a second time, defeating Stephanie Silva, who had failed to make the required weight and was therefore ineligible to win the championship, via unanimous decision.[14]

Personal life

Artiga is of Cuban descent.[3]
