May 14, 2025 – Now former WBA Super Bantamweight World Champion Nazarena “Capricho” Romero will be immediately exercising her contracted rematch clause against new champion Mayelli Flores Rosquero.
Cordoba, Argentina’s Romero (14-1-2, 8 KOs) lost her undefeated record and her title to Mexico City’s Flores Rosquero (13-1-1, 4 KOs) last Saturday, May 10, via razor-thin 10-round split decision on a PROBOX TV event from the Silver Spurs Arena in Kissimmee, Florida. In an exciting back-and-forth slugfest that will be a definite candidate for Female Fight of the Year, Romero won on the card of one judge 98-92 but fell short on the cards of the other two by identical 94-96 tallies.
Romero says she congratulates her Mexican adversary for her brave performance but will be looking for some get-back as soon as possible.
“Mayelli fought like a true Mexican warrior, and I commend her for her victory,” said Romero. “But I will be enforcing the rematch clause right away, to get my title back and avenge this loss.”
Romero’s co-promoters, Sampson Boxing and Tello Box Promotions say they are working to set a date for the second battle between the two with Flores Rosquero’s promoter Paco Damian and an announcement of the particulars will be announced shortly.
