Overview

  • Alana Flores claimed the main event with a unanimous decision over Gala Montes, extending her undefeated record in influencer boxing events.
  • Co-main bouts saw Franco Escamilla win a divided decision over Álex Montiel (Escorpión Dorado) and Mario Bautista secure a technical knockout of WestCol after a shoulder injury.
  • Organizers confirmed WBC sanctioning and nonstandard rules—no weight limits, asymmetric 12 oz vs 14 oz gloves and three 2-minute rounds—to blend professional oversight with promotional spectacle.
  • The mix of boxing and live music acts by Christian Nodal, María Becerra and others attracted 20,000 spectators and millions of free streams on DAZN, Twitch and social channels.
  • Despite technical hiccups, judging debates and pre-fight stunts such as a pizza weigh-in, promoters signaled a second edition for 2026.
