Three-division world champ Amanda Serrano talks about her September 18 bout at the Master Theater in Brooklyn



Brooklyn, NY (September 15, 2014) -- Three-division world champion Amanda Serrano (21-1, 16 KO's) knows first hand that she has a tough fight on her hands this Thursday night at the Master Theater in Brooklyn when he she takes on Jackie Trivilino (9-8-3, 1 KO) in a rematch of a fight that took place on March 20, 2009.
 

Serrano won a majority decision and now in the long awaited rematch they will headline a seven bout card promoted by Dmitry Salita's Star of David Promotions.

 
The Featherweight bout is scheduled for 8-rounds.

 
The 25 year-old Serrano will be fighting in her native Brooklyn for the first time in three years after fighting in the Dominican Republic and Argentina.

 
"I feel good. I am ready to fight. I love to fight and it's going to be a war on Thursday,"said Serrano.

 
Even though she won the first encounter, Serrano is looking for a more emphatic victory.

 
"We fought before and now I know a lot more about her. I know she is confident. I am always confident. I am ready."

 
Serrano has won belts at 126, 130 and 135 pounds and is considered one of the top female fighters in the world.

 
"It feels great to be considered one of the best. There is a lot of pressure to keep world championship status. I am here because I have a great team. I am glad to be the first female fighter to be featured on Dmitry's shows."

 
Serrano is happy that she will be at the top of the card in her hometown.

 
"I am at the level where I am the main event. We have proved to the fans that we can be the co-main event and main event. It gives me an extra umph to be able to featured so high on the card."

 
With the perceived lack of opportunities, Serrano's manager/trainer Jordan Maldonado said that Serrano may have to starting fight abroad more. She has already fought in the Dominican Republic, Sweden and Argentina.

 
"Going to Europe is the only choice. The American promoters do not see the passion of these girls,"said Maldonado,

 
"There are great fighters like (newly crowned unified Welterweight champion) Cecilia Braekhus. When we were in Argentina we noticed how much pride they have in their women fighters. It's big in Peru and it's funny because I don't think the fighters anywhere are even is good as the fighters in New York. The women here are superior but we don't have the backing over here like they do in other parts of the world, so in order to people to win the title, get the recognition and fight for the purses that Amanda is worth, we will have to go over to Europe. All of our fighters are homegrown. We will fight anyone. Amanda just won the WBO title in Argentina. Amanda is not a New York fighter, she is considered a world fighter.", finished Maldonado.

 
Serrano countered by saying, "I want to fight wherever the opportunities are. I am a warrior. I will go anywhere. I took the chance when I went to Argentina and I came home with a the belt."

 
"Thursday will be a great fight. The fans should come out and support female fighters and support this show. I want to thank Dmitry Salita for the opportunity to fight at home.", finished Serrano.

 
A terrific show has been assembled Salita.

WBO lightweight Champion Amanda Serrano headlines Brooklyn Brawl



Brooklyn, NY  (September 3, 2014) -- Amanda Serrano will enter the ring at the Master Theater (Formerly the Millennium Theater) in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn on September. 18 with a brand new belt strapped around her waist, and the usual stone game-face signaling her intentions.
 

Serrano (21-1-1, with 16 KOs) is one of the headliners September 18, on a Star of David Promotions card put together by promoter Dmitriy Salita. 

 
The 25-year-old southpaw recently traveled to Argentina and scored a 6th round stoppage win over Maria Elena Maderna, earning the WBO lightweight title. On Sept. 18, the Puerto Rican native will be sticking close to home, fighting in her borough. 

 
The foe on this night will be, as is per usual on a Salita card, no easy triumph. Serrano, one half of the "Fighting Serrano Sisters", seven years junior to big sister Cindy Serrano, is to meet Jackie Trivilino, who'll show up with ample confidence. 

 
"Amanda is an excellent athlete and so is Jackie," Salita said. "Women's boxing as a sport has come a long way in the last 10 years. Female boxers today are world class athletes, very skilled, in tremendous shape and determined to prove themselves in the sport."

 
Trivilino battled fan-favorite Heather Hardy at Barclays Center in her last outing, on June 14, and the Plattsburgh, NY native lost a technical decision by the most narrow of margins. A crowd-pleasing featherweight rumble is virtually guaranteed.

 
September 18 will also see the debut under the Star of David promotional banner of Junior Wright, a Chicagoan who is a known quality to hardcore NY-area boxing fans.

 
The cruiserweight boxed Steve Bujaj to a draw on the May 15 Salita show at the Master Theater, and that was a five star showdown. Kamarah Parsley is coming from Philadelphia with upsetting intentions; he wants to show the 11-0-1 Wright that Philly trumps Chicago when the going gets tough. 

 
Dimash Niyazov, a junior welterweight from Kazakhstan now living on Staten Island, will seek to go to 7-0-2, but he'll have to get past Rochester, NY lefty Jamell Tyson, a survivor type who wants to play the spoiler. 

 
Salita is also excited to see prospect Gary Beriguette (living in Brooklyn NY, 5-0) in his toughest fight to date, against Raphael Luna. Also, amateur standout Peter Dobson of the Bronx is making his long awaited pro debut against the experienced Mack Babb of Brooklyn, NY.

Dimash Niyazov (6-0-2, 4 KO's), a Kazakhstan-born boxer who possesses a blend of speed, power and mobility, looks to show boxing fans that Gennady Golovkin isn't the only pugilistic talent produced by that nation.
