Yesica Marcos Dominates Ana Julaton Over Ten Rounds
Teatro Griego Juan Pablo Segundo, San Martin, Mendoza, Argentina – Before a crowd of 27,000 fans, Argentina’s Jessica Patricia Marcos (18-0-1, 6KOs) captured the WBO’s female super bantamweight title with unanimous ten round decision over American-Filipina Ana Julaton (10-2, 1KO).
Julaton set a fast pace in the beginning, although Marcos always displayed the harder punches. Julaton scored a knockdown in the second after a left hand to the jaw, but Marcos recovered quickly and started pumping a southpaw jab to frustrate Julaton, and followed up the jab with right cross power shots. Julaton was unable to find a solution for Marcos’ hard shots to the body and well-timed uppercuts.
Jose Roberto Torres (Puerto Rico) scored it 98-91, Ignacio Robles (Panama) saw 96-92, and Cesar Ramos (Puerto Rico) had it 98-92 – all in favor of Marcos. BoxingScene.com/NotiFight.com scored it 97-92 for the new champion.
