Amanda Serrano.
March 5, 2012 - Amanda "The Real Deal" Serrano (14-0-1, 9 KOs) has agreed to travel to Sweden and challenge Frida "Golden Girl" Wallberg (10-0, 2 KOs) for her WBC Super Featherweight title at the Cloetta Center in Linkoping, Sweden, on April 27.
Said Serrano, "I want to thank my promoter Boxing360 for making this fight happen. It's very difficult getting these championship fights finalized. The contract is signed and I'm ready to go. This will be my first time traveling overseas to fight for a world title and I'm going to make the best of this opportunity. My goal is to get the knockout and leave no doubts in the judges' minds."
Added Boxing360 promoter Mario Yagobi, "I have a tremendous amount of respect for Amanda Serrano and her team for agreeing to fight Wallberg in her native land. Serrano's true grittiness and heart are evident in this decision. I know Amanda has it in her to bring home the WBC title. I have complete confidence in her talent and I believe this fight will take her to the next level.
"Amanda's trainer, Jordan Maldonado, has a great boxing mind. I think he's one of the top conditioning and boxing coaches in the world. He certainly understands women's boxing and I see Amanda as the next big female star.''
Serrano suffered no serious injuries in her recent fight against Ela Nunez and will be in great shape when she steps in the ring with the "Golden Girl.'' Wallberg's slick style will make for a good night of boxing when the two undefeated champions face each other. Although Serrano holds the IBF title, only Wallberg's WBC belt will be on the line.
