Balderas is a challenger who has three consecutive victories and with a lot of motivation to surprise. She has been going from strength to strength in her career and finds herself with a unique opportunity that she wants to take advantage of.

Mexico City breathes boxing and on Thursday will be the weigh-in ceremony, which is the last step before the fight. Once the weight is in, they will be ready for the fight.
