Mariah Turner

Mariah Turner is an Australian professional boxer competing in the featherweight and super-bantamweight divisions. Born in South Auckland, New Zealand, and based in Brisbane, Queensland, she is known by the nickname “The Golden Girl.”

Turner made an immediate impact in the professional ranks with an active schedule and consistent performances on the Australian domestic scene. During her debut year in 2023, she remained undefeated while collecting multiple stoppage victories, including wins over Lorraine Robson and Flora Loga, and capturing regional honours such as the Australasian super-bantamweight title.

In 2024, Turner faced her first setback, suffering a unanimous decision loss to Ellie Bouttell in China. However, she rebounded strongly with a series of victories, including stoppage wins over Nantachat Wanpeng, Sawanya Srisawat, and Pattarawan Thaosuwan, demonstrating resilience and continued development.

Turner’s breakthrough year came in 2025, when she captured the Australian featherweight title with a win over Leah Reuben, and added further victories against Siriphon Chanbuala and the previously unbeaten Stephanie Lee Cutting. These results elevated her into world rankings and positioned her for a major opportunity on the international stage.
