Serrano Set to Defend Titles Against Hanson on Han-Holm Bill

Amanda Serrano is scheduled to make her return to the ring on May 30, defending her WBA and WBO titles against Germany's Cheyenne Hanson at the El Paso County Coliseum in Texas. This highly anticipated bout will be part of the same event as the rematch between Stephanie Han and Holly Holm for the WBA lightweight title. Additionally, Desley Robinson will put her IBF and WBO middleweight titles on the line against Mary Spencer, while Yokasta Valle will move back to light-flyweight to compete against Lourdes Juarez for the WBC title. Serrano expressed her respect for her opponent, stating, "I respect every opponent who steps into the ring, and I know Hanson is coming to win and has KO power." She also emphasized her ongoing pursuit of the all-time knockout record, highlighting the importance of discipline, execution, and performing at the highest level on fight night. Serrano, the first-ever Puerto Rican undisputed world champion and most decorated fighter in women's boxing history, previously fought Katie Taylor in a high-profile trilogy and made a successful unified featherweight title defense in January against Reina Tellez. Hanson expressed her excitement and gratitude for the opportunity, stating, "I'm really excited and grateful for this fight... I respect my opponent, but I'm coming to make a statement." The event's promoters, Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul, praised Serrano's consistent high standard and emphasized the significance of this double main event, which promises to be an unforgettable night of women's boxing in El Paso.
