Amanda Serrano, proudly known as “The Real Deal,” stands as the sole female and Puerto Rican athlete to claim world titles in more than four weight classes. Her remarkable achievements extend to holding the Guinness World Record for the highest number of boxing world championships secured in distinct weight divisions by a female. Recognized by the WBO, she clinched the prestigious Female Boxer of the Year Award twice, in 2016 and 2018, with the added honor of being the inaugural recipient of the WBO’s Super World Championship for women.

Now, she has raised her voice to support the rest of the female boxers who are struggling to establish their standing in the boxing industry while competing with their male counterparts.

Amanda Serrano calls out sexist haters

Serrano has been doing her best to elevate women’s boxing to the same status at which men’s boxing is held. Her recent victory against Danila Ramos in an unconventional 12 3-minute round fight etched her name in history. This move helped put women’s boxing on the same ground as men’s boxing.

Having proven herself numerous times, she addressed the hate women’s boxing receives. She took to Twitter, and wrote, “Whomever says Women’s Boxing isn’t a Big thing has issues
We take all the Risks & we Entertain. A high % of the big fights live up to the hype. I’m a fan of every woman that does what I do, for that reason I will/would never talk down to any of them.
#WomensBoxingRules.” With the post, she revealed how she appreciates every female boxer for what they have. She also promised to never disrespect them.

Serrano grateful for the support of Puerto Rico

Not too long ago, in a heartfelt message on social media, Serrano poured out her gratitude, sharing the incredible emotions that come with the overwhelming support she’s received. As the undisputed featherweight world champion, she described the indescribable feeling of having the entire Puerto Rico standing behind her, emphasizing how it goes beyond just the victories in the ring.

As Serrano reflected on the moment, she found striking parallels with boxing legends Felix Trinidad and Miguel Cotto, both of whom had experienced similar adoration from their homeland. Now, she stands as the torchbearer, with the passionate support that had once surrounded those icons now fervently rallying behind her.

Serrano is now leading the movement for reducing the parity between men’s and women’s boxing and has received support from many reputed entities across the world of boxing and even from those outside it.
