Serrano to End Career in Puerto Rico in January

Seven-weight world champion Amanda Serrano will face Australia’s Skye Falzon in Puerto Rico on 9 January in the final fight of her illustrious professional boxing career.
The 38-year-old will defend her WBA and WBO featherweight titles on home soil at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico in San Juan.
Serrano, who boasts a fight history of 50 wins, four defeats and one draw, will be seeking to break the all-time women’s knockout record in her farewell bout.
“Boxing has been my life, and I never could have imagined the journey it would take me and my family on,” said Serrano, who turned professional in 2009.
“To close my career at home in Puerto Rico, in front of the people who have supported me from the beginning, means everything. I’m going to give the fans one final night to remember.”
Serrano’s farewell bout, labelled The Last Walk, will be contested over 12 three-minute rounds against 37-year-old Falzon, who has won 12 of her 14 professional fights, including seven by knockout.
In her previous outing, Serrano edged a majority decision victory over Argentina’s Lucrecia Manzur to claim her 50th professional win.
The contest was the first world title fight to be broadcast live on TikTok, generating 3.4m views.
But Serrano was unable to secure the knockout she needed to surpass American boxing pioneer Christy Martin’s record of 32, leaving her with one final opportunity to make history.
