Serrano Set to Defend Titles Against Hanson in May Showdown
Amanda Serrano is scheduled to make her return to the ring on May 30 at the El Paso County Coliseum in Texas, where she will put her WBA and WBO titles on the line against German challenger Cheyenne Hanson. The bout will be part of a stacked card, featuring Stephanie Han's highly anticipated rematch with Holly Holm for the WBA lightweight title. Additionally, Desley Robinson will defend her IBF and WBO middleweight titles against Mary Spencer, while Yokasta Valle will move down to light-flyweight to face Lourdes Juarez for the WBC title. Serrano expressed her respect for Hanson, acknowledging her opponent's knockout power, but remains focused on her own goals, including breaking the all-time knockout record. Serrano, the first-ever Puerto Rican undisputed world champion and most decorated fighter in women's boxing history, is coming off a successful title defense in January. Hanson, meanwhile, is eager to make a statement and represent Germany on the global stage. The event promises to be an exciting night of boxing, with promoter MVP co-founders Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul hailing it as a testament to the growth and excitement of women's boxing.
