CARTAGO, COSTA RICA (November 4, 2023) – One of boxing’s most active World Champions, Yokasta “Yoka” Valle (30-2, 9 KOs), successfully defended her IBF and WBO Minimumweight World Titles against former, two-time World Champion of Mexico City, Anabel “Avispa” Ortiz (33-6, 4 KOs) in a 10-round match that went the distance in front of more than five-thousand fans. Valle used her superior skillset to offset the aggressive Ortiz, the judges scoring in favor of Valle with scores of 100-90, 99-92 and 99-91. Valle’s victory marked her ninth overall title defense and her third as the unified IBF and WBO World Champion. The event headlined the Golden Boy Fight Night on DAZN show, live from the Polideportivo de Cartago in Costa Rica and broadcast on DAZN.”The fight was very difficult. Anabel Ortiz is a very dirty fighter, she used her head a lot, but despite that we were able to get the victory tonight,” said Yokasta Valle. “It was loud, and the energy from the people from Cartago gave me the will to keep on going. I want Seniesa Estrada for my next fight. She has the other two titles, and I want to become the undisputed champion in this division. Thank you, Costa Rica! Pura Vida!”
