Nina Meinke, a 30-year-old southpaw from Berlin, didn't hesitate to accept this challenge. She expressed deep respect for Serrano's role in championing equality in boxing. "Much respect to Amanda that she started the equality in boxing. It's not just talking, it's doing it. I'm very proud to be a part of it," Meinke stated.
Serrano, who lives and trains in Carolina, Puerto Rico, has become a symbol of strength and perseverance for women in the sport. She represents both Brooklyn and Puerto Rico, bridging two communities with her formidable talent.
Meinke enters this fight with a record of 21 total fights comprising 18 wins, 4 by knockout, and 3 losses. Despite traditionally fighting up to ten rounds of two minutes each, her training regimens have always incorporated three-minute rounds with male sparring partners. "Nothing really changed for me. We train with men and train three-minute rounds anyway," she said concerning her preparation.
This bout also represents Meinke's first fight outside Europe, adding an extra layer of significance and challenge to her career.

Elijah Flores vs Alejandro Munera Fight
- Division/Weight : welterweight
- Elijah Flores record : 7-0
- Alejandro Munera record : 8-8
- Belts at stake : N/A
Elijah Flores is set to face Alejandro Munera in a welterweight matchup.
Elijah Flores, with a professional record of 7 wins (2 by KO) and no losses, turned pro in late 2021. His last fight was a unanimous decision win against Javier Mayoral, who had a mixed record. Given Flores's unbeaten streak and facing an opponent like Munera with an equal number of wins and losses, Flores looks poised for success in this bout due to his momentum and past performance against comparable or better opposition.
Alejandro Munera brings to the ring a balanced record of 8 wins (7 by KO), 8 losses, and 4 draws since turning pro in 2016. His last outing was a unanimous decision loss to Arnold Gonzalez, an undefeated fighter. Although Munera has experienced both victory and defeat, going up against an unbeaten young fighter like Flores poses a significant challenge. However, his power can't be ignored; with most of his wins coming by knockout, he could threaten if he lands effectively.
Pedro Marquez Medina vs Brandon Valdes Fight
- Division/Weight : featherweight
- Pedro Marquez Medina record : 15-1
- Brandon Valdes record : 15-4
- Belts at stake : N/A
Pedro Marquez Medina is set to fight Brandon Valdes in a featherweight division bout.
Pedro Marquez Medina turned pro in 2015 and has a record of 15 wins, 1 loss, with 10 of those wins by knockout. His last fight was a win against Luis Porozo. Given Pedro's higher KO rate compared to his recent opponent's stats, and considering the weight class, Pedro seems to have the power advantage heading into this fight against Brandon Valdes.
Brandon Valdes began his professional career in 2016 and boasts a record of 15 wins, 4 losses, with 7 wins by knockout. In his latest bout, he suffered a loss against Ruben Villa by unanimous decision. Analyzing Brandon's record and recent performance, especially against an opponent with a similar background to Pedro but less power, suggests that Valdes might face challenges matching Pedro's striking power in their upcoming match.
Christopher Diaz vs Headley Scott Fight
- Division/Weight : super-featherweight
- Christopher Diaz record : 27-4
- Headley Scott record : 18-1
- Belts at stake : N/A
Christopher Diaz is set to fight Headley Scott in a super-featherweight clash with no belts on the line.
Diaz turned pro in 2013, securing a record of 27 wins, 4 losses, with 17 knockouts. His last victory over Deivi Julio by RTD shows his capability to perform against experienced opposition, considering Julio's considerable number of fights. With a higher knockout percentage, Diaz might leverage his power against Scott.
Scott's professional career started in 2014, boasting an 18-1 record with 12 knockouts. Defeating Nathan Benichou by unanimous decision in his last outing indicates his solid performance against lesser opponents. However, facing Diaz, who has fought more seasoned fighters and maintains a high KO rate, presents a challenging step up for Scott.
Javon Walton vs Joshua Torres Fight
- Division/Weight : featherweight
- Javon Walton record : 1-0
- Joshua Torres record : 0-1
- Belts at stake : N/A
Javon Walton is set to face Joshua Torres in a featherweight bout.
Javon Walton, with a professional background dating from 2023, boasts a clean record of 1 win with all victories coming by knockout. His debut saw him finishing his opponent conclusively, indicating his power at super featherweight. With Torres having only one loss and no wins by knockout in two fights, Walton's impressive start suggests he could dominate due to his evident power advantage.
Joshua Torres turned pro in 2022 and has since secured a balanced fight record with 0 wins, 1 loss, and 1 draw; none of his bouts ended in a knockout. His last fight against Eric Han resulted in a split draw, showing resilience but lacking finishing strength. Facing Walton, who has demonstrated substantial knockout power, presents a challenging matchup for Torres at featherweight - suggesting that he may need to focus on defense and strategy to withstand the threat Walton poses.
Krystal Rosado Ortiz vs Gloria Munguilla Fight
- Division/Weight : super-flyweight
- Krystal Rosado Ortiz record : 2-0
- Gloria Munguilla record : 5-0
- Belts at stake : N/A
Krystal Rosado Ortiz faces Gloria Munguilla in a super-flyweight clash with no belts on the line.
Krystal Rosado Ortiz, only a professional since August 2023, boasts a record of 2 wins, no losses, and 50% of her victories coming by way of knockout. Her last victory was over Kata Pap, a fighter with less experience which indicates that Krystal's rapid development and power could pose a significant challenge to Munguilla, despite Ortiz's brief career so far.
Gloria Munguilla, turning pro in November 2022, has secured 5 wins without any losses but lacks knockout power, having won all her matches by decision. Her last fight against Shawna Ormsby, an opponent with limited success, suggests that while she has more experience than Ortiz, the lack of knockouts in her record may be a disadvantage against an opponent with demonstrated power like Krystal Rosado Ortiz.
Jonathan Gonzalez vs Rene Santiago Fight
Jonathan Gonzalez is set to face Rene Santiago, with the WBO World Light Fly title on the line.
Jonathan Gonzalez Stats
- Nationality : Puerto Rico
- Stance : Southpaw
- Height : 157cm
- Reach : 157cm
- Total Fights : 31
- Record : 27 / 3 / 1
Gonzalez turned pro in 2011 and boasts a record of 27 wins (14 by KO), 3 losses, and 1 draw. His last win was against Shokichi Iwata, showing his experience in high-stakes fights. Facing Santiago, who has a comparable KO rate but less experience, hints at an advantage for Gonzalez due to his history in title matches.
Rene Santiago Stats
- Nationality : Puerto Rico
- Stance : Orthodox
- Height : 160cm
- Total Fights : 15
- Record : 12 / 3 / 0
Santiago started his career in 2014, holding a record of 12 wins (9 by KO) and 3 losses. Winning against Carlos Ortega in his last fight shows Santiago's power. However, compared to Gonzalez’s performance against tougher opponents recently, Santiago might find the upcoming match challenging given Gonzalez's proven track record.
Jake Paul vs Ryan Bourland Fight
- Division/Weight : cruiserweight
- Jake Paul record : 8-1
- Ryan Bourland record : 17-2
- Belts at stake : N/A
Jake Paul will fight Ryan Bourland in a cruiserweight division match, with no belts on the line.
Jake Paul turned pro in 2020 and has scored 8 wins, with 5 by knockout. His knockout power was evident in his last fight against Andre August, winning by KO. Considering August's decent record and experience, Paul's victory suggests he's a strong contender against Bourland, who has a lower KO rate.
Ryan Bourland began his professional career in 2013 and boasts a record of 17 wins, with 6 by knockout. His last victory came via TKO against Santario Martin. Given Martin had more losses than wins and fought primarily at light heavy, Bourland might find facing Paul, who has proven power at cruiserweight, a significant challenge.
Amanda Serrano vs Nina Meinke Fight
- Division/Weight : featherweight
- Amanda Serrano record : 46-2
- Nina Meinke record : 18-3
- Belts at stake : IBF World Feather, IBO World Feather, WBA World Feather, WBO World Feather
Amanda Serrano faces Nina Meinke in a featherweight clash for the IBF, IBO, WBA, and WBO World Feather belts.
Amanda Serrano turned pro in 2009 and boasts a record of 46 wins, 2 losses, with 30 knockouts. Her last fight was a unanimous decision win over Danila Ramos, showcasing her dominance in the featherweight division. Given Serrano's experience and knockout power compared to Meinke's fewer KO victories, Serrano is expected to control the fight.
Nina Meinke turned professional in 2016 and has an 18-3 record with 4 knockouts. She secured a unanimous decision victory against Laura Ledezma in her most recent bout. Meinke's success against Ledezma, who has shown power but occupies a different weight class than Serrano, suggests that while capable, Meinke may struggle against the prolific experience and power of Serrano.
