Hammer earned her first professional bout at the age of 19 in 2009 and she quickly moved up the rankings to become the youngest WBO world champion just one year later at the age of 20.
The 30-year-old German is another on our list who also took time out of her fighting career to model, but with 28 wins in 29 fights it is her boxing career that impresses the most.

Shannon Courtenay is a British professional boxer who comes in at number seven for our most attractive female boxers and she has an impressive record of 7-2 during her career, including three wins via knockout.
Courtenay lost her first fight in 2020 to fellow Brit Rachel Bell, but she didn’t let that slow her down with a bold comeback later in the year which ultimately secured her the WBA female bantamweight title.
The 30-year-old has been affectionately named the “Babyface Assassin” because of her young look, but she is certainly no walkover in the ring and is feared by many in the sport.

Shields held multiple world championships in three different weight classes during her career, as well as still holding the record for becoming two and three-weight world champion in the fewest amount of professional bouts.

The Colombian’s most impressive feat during her career was undoubtedly the achievement of holding all four major titles, including the WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO.
Only 11 boxers of either gender have ever managed to hold all four major titles which makes Braekhus one of the most impressive athletes in the sport, as well as one of the top ten most attractive.

The Oregon born 29-year-old was reportedly paid over $1 million for her first four bare knuckle fights, but she went on to lose the first against Britain Haart via unanimous decision.
