Seniesa Estrada defeated longtime rival Yokasta Valle<\/strong><\/h2>\n

At Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona, the super fight live up to the pre-fight trash talk, and after 10 rounds of sustained action, an undisputed Straw-weight world champion was crowned.
\nSeniesa \u201cSuper Bad\u201d Estrada (26-0, 9 KOs) defeated longtime rival Yokasta Valle (30-3, 9 KOs) via unanimous decision to unify all the belts in the 105-pound division, a first in boxing history.
\nBoth took the center of the ring in the opening round, but Estrada\u2019s unorthodox style perplexed an aggressive Valle. A clash of heads in the first round caused a cut above Valle\u2019s right eye, and Estrada had success by switching stances and punching from the outside.
\nAn undeterred Valle stepped up the pace in round four, landing a right hook that appeared to stun Estrada. Valle continued landing in the fifth, and it was evident that she was stronger on the inside.
\nEstrada made adjustments and began fighting again from the outside, landing with precision and even taunting Valle at times. The Costa Rican rallied late in the final round, but it was not enough.
\nAll judges scored the fight 97-93.
\nEstrada said, “I feel better. I\u2019m happy. It\u2019s something I\u2019ve been wanting for a long time, becoming undisputed. It finally happened, and I accomplished my dreams. I\u2019m beyond overwhelmed and happy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew she would come in and be aggressive like she always is. That\u2019s her style, and I knew I would take everything away from her that she does best.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very competitive, and I want to be the best. In this training camp, there were days where it was difficult for me to go to the gym. My body was hurting. My back was hurting. My hand was hurting. But I pushed through because that\u2019s what champions do and because I want to be great.”<\/p>\n

Valle said, \u201cI did feel {the headbutt that opened the cut} was intentional. I felt that she did that coming towards me in the first round, and I had to struggle through that for the last nine rounds.\u201d<\/p>\n
