Amanda Serrano Sends an Ultimatum to All World Champions in her Division PhilBoxing.com Fri, 12 Feb 2016  New York - Two-time world champion, Amanda 'The Real Deal' Serrano from Carolina, Puerto Rico, but now living in Brooklyn, will be fighting on February 17 in Manhatthan for the vacant WBO World female featherweight title against former world champion, Olivia Gerula of Canada. The ambitious Puerto Rican lefty wants to become the undisputed world champion in the featherweight division, and has a message to the current title holders. "Right now, I'm only focused on Olivia, but at the same time I'm very confident about bringing that belt to Brooklyn and Puerto Rico on February 17," said Amanda Serrano, who is promoted by DiBella Entertainment. "Once I get that beatiful belt, we will be looking to unify. There is Jennifer Han, who is the IBF world champion, Soledad Matthysse is the WBC and WBA champion, and she is fighting Jelena Mrdjenovich. I want the winner!" "Unifying all four featherweight titles is the only thing we care about. If we fail to make that happen, I will go down to 122 to fight for another world title, and become a four division legitimate world champion just like Miguel Cotto". Serrano (26-1-1, 19 KO) vs. Gerula (17-15-2, 3KO) showdown will take place at the famed B.B. King Blues Club and Grill marking the first world title fight in the club's history. On August 15, 2014, Serrano traveled to Argentina to face WBO Lightweight World Champion Maria 'Tily' Maderna, who at that time, had three successful title defenses, but could not handle the aggressiveness of the Puerto Rican power puncher, and decided to give up in the sixth round. Serrano's first title reign came in September 2011, when she knocked out Kimberly Connor in the first round to become the IBF World Champion at the super featherweight division in a bout held in Brooklyn.  |
