Lena Löw fighter card

Born on January 16, 1994 and ranked third as Super Lightweight in Germany, Lena Löw is an unusual animal in boxing.

First and foremost because of her nickname. In the school yard, her mates called her Angry Squirrel because of her facial features, and her personality type. She rarely made noise, remaining independent and very territorial. When someone got under her skin, her anger would be vocal, but ultimately not very scary.

She behaved the same way in the boxing gym, working alone most of the time after learning the basics with a coach. She would review fights and tutorials on YouTube and patiently work on perfecting the art of defending. Her approach: missed punches don’t hurt and they allow to counter.

As she improved, one of the coaches decided to take her on and bring her to the world of amateur competition. Lena’s philosophy gave good results, earning her 37 wins, but she also lost 11 bouts. Judges rewarded aggression more than defensive moves, leaving her disappointed.

The situation improved as a professional. Her defense caused frustration among opponents, and accurate counterattacks fed the scorecards with the “clean, effective punching” that judges are looking for.

Lena’s most recent fight has been an easy schooling of Larissa Fiedler over six rounds. She dominated from the opening bell to the final second.

Outside of boxing, Lena works part-time as an insurance broker. She is married to an architect.
