Serrano Targets Memorable Farewell Fight in Puerto Rico
The Amanda Serrano farewell fight will close one of the great careers in women’s boxing, when the Puerto Rican champion defends her unified featherweight titles against Australia’s Skye Falzon in San Juan on January 9, 2027. Serrano said she wants a memorable final night at home, in front of the crowd that has backed her from the start.
Promoters have named the bout “The Last Walk”. It will mark the end of Serrano’s professional career, and it will take place at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico in San Juan. Serrano, 38, will defend her unified World Boxing Organisation and World Boxing Association featherweight titles in the contest.
A career built across seven divisions
Serrano holds a record of 50 wins, four defeats and one draw, with 32 knockouts. She has won world titles in seven weight divisions, a feat that puts her among the most decorated boxers in the sport, male or female. She is also Puerto Rico’s only undisputed boxing champion.
Most boxers build a career in one or two divisions.
Serrano was born in Carolina, Puerto Rico, and she has often said that home means a great deal to her. A farewell fight in San Juan lets her close her career where her story began, rather than in a neutral venue far from her fans. For Puerto Rican boxing, the night will also serve as a celebration of a fighter who carried the island’s name into major fights around the world.
Why the Amanda Serrano farewell fight matters
Serrano said she wants to be remembered as someone who changed the sport, and she pointed to her effort in every fight and every training camp as the basis for that hope. She said she gave her all in the ring each time, and she hopes fans saw that dedication.
The final fight also carries a record chase. Serrano shares the women’s knockout record with American Christy Martin, and one more knockout in San Juan would put her alone at the top. Serrano said the record would be a bonus, not her main aim. Her main aim is a strong final performance for her supporters.
The format adds another layer. The bout is set for 12 three-minute rounds at 126 pounds, the same championship format used for men’s world title fights. Women’s title fights have often used shorter rounds, so the 12-round, three-minute format stands as a statement about equality in the sport. Serrano said she chose that format because she wants to enjoy every second of her last fight.
Who is Skye Falzon?
Falzon, from Australia, is ranked fourth by the World Boxing Association at featherweight. She holds a record of 12 wins and two defeats, with seven knockouts, and she has won 11 fights in a row. She has also stayed active, with six fights since May 2024.
For Falzon, the bout is the biggest chance of her career. She faces a seven-division champion, in the champion’s home city, with two world titles at stake. A win would change her career at once. A strong showing, even in defeat, would still raise her profile far beyond her past fights.
The bout will stream live on DAZN, according to the promoters, Most Valuable Promotions. Tickets went on sale on November 3, and the promoters held a kickoff press conference in San Juan the same evening. The rest of the card, including the co-main event, will be announced in the coming weeks.
What happens next
Serrano will now prepare for a training camp aimed at one last peak. At 38, recovery and timing matter as much as fitness, so her team will plan the camp with care. Falzon will prepare for a hostile crowd and a champion who has seen every style of opponent.
For women’s boxing, the farewell also marks a passing moment. Serrano helped push women’s fights onto major cards and major platforms, and her farewell will draw eyes that might not otherwise watch a featherweight title fight. The sport will still have strong champions after she retires, but it will lose one of its most recognisable names.
Feature Pakistan’s women’s sport coverage includes the WTA Finals draw in WTA Finals Draw Puts Rybakina With Gauff, and the appointment of a new Pakistan women’s cricket head coach in Shane Deitz Set as Pakistan Women Head Coach. Serrano’s farewell belongs in that same picture: a leading woman athlete closing a long career on her own terms, at home.
