A new presentation for the World Boxing Association’s Light Flyweight champion. Yesica Bopp will fight the former triple world champion, the Mexican Jessica Nery Plata, on March 11 at the Majestic Casino located in the heart of Panama. 

This will not be just another date for the WBA 108 lbs. super champion. First of all, Bopp has been waiting for a long time for this fight against the Mexican who is 10 years younger than La Tuti, who would complete 40 fights – 37 wins with 17 knockouts and only 2 defeats – something like her boxing birthday. Secondly, exactly one month after the fight with Nery Plata, Bopp will celebrate his 38th birthday! Curious facts, and not minor at all, that reflect the great trajectory of the boxer representing Argentina, who has maintained an impeccable conduct throughout time. Beyond the results in sight.

For Bopp this fight would mean the 24th defense of her crown, while Nery Plata, at 27 years old and after more than a year of inactivity, will be looking to complete her 30th fight – 27 wins with 3 knockouts and 2 reverses – and at the same time she will want to get back to the champion’s path. Undoubtedly, this will be a great attraction from Panama to the world.
