WBA/WBO flyweight champion Juan Francisco “Gallo” Estrada (27-2, 20 KOs) scored an eleventh round TKO over former world champion Giovani “Guerrero Azteca” Segura (32-4-1, 28 KOs) on Saturday night at the Arena Mexico in Mexico City. Estrada’s reach, movement and crisp combinations paid dividends as he largely neutralized Segura’s pressure and dominated the fight. The bout was stopped in round eleven to save Segura from further punishment. Time was 1:33.

Earlier, female boxing legend Jackie “Princesa Azteca” Nava (30-4-3, 13 KOs) scored a majority decision over 47-year-old WBC female super bantamweight champion Alicia “Slick” Ashley (21-9-1, 3 KOs). Scores were 98-92, 95-95, 97-93.
