A trilogy that defines the era – World Boxing Association

Published

on

On Friday, July 11, the legendary Garden Madison Square in Fresh York will host the decisive chapter in the history of women’s boxing. Katie Taylor from Ireland (24-1, 6 Kos) and Amanda Serrano Puerto Rico (47-3-1, 31 KO) will collide for the third time, this time with the undisputed super-light crown on the line-in this WBA and other main world titles-the first whole combat card.

The competition between Taylor and Serrano has long crossed this sport. In 2022, they went down in history as the first women who were the headlining in Madison Square Garden in the fight, which were hailed as “Fight of the Year” by many sales points. Taylor underwent Serrano, a divided decision in the war for centuries. Their rematch took place in 2024, this time in Texas, where Taylor emerged again to victory – this time a unanimous decision, as a result of which she aroused controversy, because many believed that the relentless pressure and power of Serrano brought her victory.

Now, when Taylor ran a 2-0 series, Serrano has a clear mission: The Three Time’s Charm. Star Boricua, world champion in seven weight classes and the first woman who was undisputed in a featherweight, returned to 140 pounds in search of redemption. At the age of 36, he says that she is in the best form of his life – physically and mentally – and plans to impose her will from the opening bell.

38 -year -old Taylor enters the fight as a prevailing undisputed champion at 140, holding WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO lanes. The former Olympic gold medalist still relies on her side movement, rapid combinations and tactical precision. Despite this, in recent fights, she showed a growing tendency to clinch and wear opponents, something that Serrano would want to employ.

Statistically, Serrano holds the edge in volume and power. But Taylor consistently managed to dictate the pace and sway the judges when he has the most significant.

Taylor and Serrano do not fight only for the title – they are fighting to close the trilogy, which has already become a legend. And once again the garden will be a cathedral in which history is written.

Estefany Alegría delivered the best performance of her professional career, dethroning one of the sport’s most renowned champions. The Mexican won the World Boxing Association (WBA) lithe heavyweight title after a dominant unanimous decision victory over experienced Argentine titleholder Evelin “La Princesita” Bermúdez, stunning the boxing world with a 108-pounder at Caribe Royale in Orlando.

Alegría’s victory was decisive from start to finish. The fighter imposed her will throughout the ten-round fight, showing an overwhelming advantage, which was fully reflected on the judges’ scorecards. At the end of the fight, the official score was 99-91, 99-91 and an impressive 100-90, crowning the fresh queen of the black and gold organization.

True to his name and proud Mexican fighting tradition, Alegría applied constant pressure that completely neutralized Bermúdez’s technical distance boxing style. The Argentine tried to keep her challenger at bay with her left jab, but Alegría consistently cut off the ring, forcing close exchanges in which she landed punishing hooks to the body and powerful combinations upstairs.

As the rounds progressed, Bermúdez struggled to establish a consistent rhythm while Alegría continued to dictate the pace and distance of the fight. Her aggression, work rate and efficiency left no doubt as to the result.

With this impressive triumph, Estefana Alegría secures her place in the sport’s elite and will bring another world champion belt to Mexico during the 2026 boxing season.

Nataly Delgado drew on her experience and ring knowledge to reach the top of the 115-pound division in Orlando, Florida. The Panamanian veteran won the World Boxing Association (WBA) super flyweight title with a unanimous decision victory over previously undefeated American Jasmine Artiga in a brisk and hard-fought fight.

Delgado’s triumph was the result of a disciplined and well-executed ten-round game plan. The official scorecards read 97-93, 97-93 and 97-93, reflecting the challenger’s increasing control as the fight progressed and her clear dominance during the championship rounds.

From the first bell, Artiga tried to dictate the action with her hand speed and deft movement. Delgado, however, implemented her strategy to perfection. The Panamanian maintained a tight guard, intelligently cut off the ring and consistently invested in bodywork, landing a mighty punch to the stomach.

This constant pressure gradually weakened the American champion, allowing Delgado to take command of the close-range rallies. As Artiga slowed, Delgado took advantage, winning key moments down the stretch to secure the victory and take the prestigious black and gold belt back to Panama.

With the biggest victory of her career, Delgado cemented her place among the elite super flyweights and added another world championship chapter to Panamanian boxing history.
