Leila Beaudoin reached the pinnacle of the super featherweight division with a brilliant boxing display on Saturday night. The Canadian standout captured the World Boxing Association (WBA) interim super featherweight championship by defeating Colombia’s Paulina Angel via dominant unanimous decision in Quebec, Canada, where she dictated the pace and rhythm of the fight from the opening bell.
Beaudoin’s command of the ring was absolute, leaving no room for debate on the scorecards. All three judges turned in identical tallies of 100-90, 100-90, and 100-90, reflecting the one-sided nature of the contest. From the first round, the Canadian made full use of her reach advantage and superior footwork, turning the bout into a showcase of technical boxing while preventing her opponent from ever finding a comfortable range.
The fight highlighted a clear contrast in styles, with Beaudoin’s ring IQ completely neutralizing Angel’s aggression. The Colombian challenger pressed forward bravely throughout the contest, looking to force exchanges at close quarters, but she was repeatedly met by a sharp, accurate jab and slick lateral movement that kept her off balance. Beaudoin controlled the action with precision and timing, counterpunching effectively over the course of all ten rounds.
With the emphatic victory, Leila Beaudoin claims the WBA interim crown at 130 pounds and firmly establishes herself among the elite names in women’s boxing as she continues her rise in 2026.
