From WBC:
Selina Barrios successfully defends NABF crown
At Whataburger Field in Corpus Christi, Texas, San Antonio’s sensation, Selina “Aztec Queen” Barrios (5-0, 2 KOs), remained unbeaten with a dominant 10-round win over Patricia Juarez (4 -1), sister of the WBC bantamweight champion, Mariana “Barby” Juarez (50-9-4, 13 knockouts).
With the victory, Barrios retains her NABF lightweight title.
In the first rounds, both fighters were very active, throwing a lot of punches, but Barrios was the one who landed the most precise during the entire combat.
The scores were 100-89 and 99-91 twice in favor of Barrios.
“I felt that I controlled the fight from the opening bell,” said Selina Barrios. “Juarez was a very tough opponent and I give her a lot of credit. I have the victory and I am ready to fight against the best on my division.”
