(JULY 22) On August 11, 2018, at
the Mexico City Arena, in Mexico, they will be featuring two
exciting female boxers on the card, Mariana "Barby" Juarez
vs. Terumi Nuki, 10-3-0 (7KO); and Jackie "Princesa Azteca" Nava
vs. Alys Sanchez, 15-4-1 (4KO), of Maracay, Venezuela.
Juarez, 49-9-4 (18KO), of Mexico
City, Mexico, will be fighting Japan's Nuki in a ten-round bout
where she will be defending her WBC Bantamweight world title.
This will be a rematch for the two, as they previously fought on
July 8, 2017, where Juarez defended her WBC Bantamweight
title---winning the first time by a ten-round unanimous
decision.
Juarez has fought twice in 2018, defending her title
successfully in each bout, first on February 17, 2018
against Gabriela Bouvier, and on April 28, 2018, fighting
Carolina Arias, where she won both bouts by a unanimous
decision.
Nava, 33-4-3 (14KO), last fought over a year ago, on February 4,
2017. In that bout, she was defending her WBC International
Bantamweight title, where she defeated Ana Maria Lozano by a
ten-round unanimous decision. In this bout on August 11th, she
will be defending her title once again.
