Unbeaten IBO Lightweight World Champion Estelle Mossely (10-0, 1 KO) of Bagnole, France, scored a 10-round split decision win over game Argentina challenger Yanina del Carmen Lescano (10-2, 6 KO's) for a successful third defense of her world title Friday evening in Dubai. U.A.E.
Wearing white, the skilled French warrior lady, an Olympic gold medalist in Rio, boxed well from the distance, out-landing the Argentina fight girl, besting her with a larger volume of punches and slick moves while smartly pivoting away from danger.
The battle represented the return to action for the talented 29-year-old Estelle Mossely after a full year of inactivity.
That's why Estelle now wants more rumbles more often to make up for the missed time.
The entertaining show was promoted by Richard Schaefer’s Probellum, live on ESPN KnockOut
