22-year-old Argentinian warrior girl "La Princesita" Micaela Milagros Luján (10-1-1, 3 KO's) made a successful first defense of her IBF Super Flyweight World title by scoring a wide unanimous decision win over brave Panama challenger Nataly Estefany Delgado (8-4-1, 2 KO’s) on Friday, Nov. 26, at the completely full Estadio José María Gatica in Villa Mercedes, Argentina.

The battle was a showcase of Micaela’s boxing skills over the less-talented Panamanian fighting girl who never stopped trying to land her punches.

The veteran referee “El Internacional” Mario González had less work to do as the girls fought clean, as hard as they could, exchanging mostly in the center of the ring without excessive holdings, nor cuts nor knockdowns nor fouls nor point-deductions, just good old style boxing.

At the end, official scores were 99-91 (three times) in favor of the far-superior “Princesita” Micaela Milagros Luján who came well on top of her game with her right hand raised in front of her cheering hometown crowd.

After the clash, many fans now wonder how would Micaela Luján do in battle against more-experienced, seasoned Mexican warrior women WBC world champion Lourdes Juárez (33-2, 4 KO’s), the tough Yessica Chávez (32-5-3, 4 KO’s) or “La Bonita” Diana Laura Fernández (24-4-1, 4 KO’s)?

The evening of boxing from the land of Maradona and Messi was beamed live on TyC Sports.
