Amanda Serrano Ties Women's KO Record with 32nd Stoppage Victory in El Paso

Amanda Serrano stopped Cheyenne Hanson at MVPW-03 on May 31, 2026, in El Paso, Texas, tying Christy Martin's all-time women's knockout record with 32 KOs. Serrano improved to 49-4-1 with the victory and remains the WBO and WBA featherweight champion. Serrano has won titles in seven divisions over 17 years in the sport.

She told ESPN that 2026 would likely be the final year of her professional boxing career and that she aimed to reach 50 wins while breaking the knockout record. Serrano said she is not necessarily interested in fighting Alycia Baumgardner and prefers to defend her titles against mandatories. She added that she wants her final fight to take place in Puerto Rico, where she lives, or in New York.

Stephanie Han defeated Holly Holm by majority decision to retain her WBA lightweight title at the same event. The scorecards read 96-94, 96-94 and 95-95. Holm outlanded Han 107-70 in total punches, but the judges credited Han's early work.

Holm had made adjustments after losing the first fight to Han by technical decision in January. Han said after the rematch that she wants to face unified junior welterweight champion Katie Taylor next, citing Taylor's earlier win over her sister Jennifer Han. Lucrecia Manzur holds the No.

1 contender spot with a record of 14-4 and 7 KOs. Shannel Butler remains undefeated at 7-0 with 3 KOs. Serrano has been credited with elevating the profile of women's boxing through her trilogy with Katie Taylor.
