Amanda Serrano Secures Decisive Win Over Danila Ramos By Winning All 12 Rounds
Amanda Serrano made history in the first-ever women’s unification fight consisting of 12 three-minute rounds as the Puerto Rican beat Danila Ramos via a unanimous decision to retain her undisputed featherweight titles.
Serrano dominated the fight from the opening bell by winning all the rounds against the Brazilian, who failed to trouble the champion. Serrano went on the front foot by putting Ramos on the ropes in the opener before landing numerous hooks to dominate the first two rounds. Meanwhile, Ramos’ desire to use the jab to stay out of range was clear. But as Serrano picked up the pace, Ramos could not live with the champion’s intensity.
In round four, Serrano connected with shots to the midsection and head as the champion closed the distance to land on the inside. Ramos’ eye began to swell up, but the challenger did connect with a counter left.
