Anthony Olascuaga W12 Yuberjen Martinez... Fighting just outside of his hometown, Los Angeles' own Anthony Olascuaga defended his WBO flyweight championship for the sixth time, taking Yuberjen Martinez’s unbeaten record in a flyweight thriller. Olascuaga's knockdown of the Colombian in the twelfth round was crucial, as the scorecards barely favored the champion: 115-112 (twice) and 114-113. WBO president Gustavo Olivieri wrote: "A Fight of the Year candidate! Olascuaga–Martínez represented championship boxing at its finest. An exceptional fight from the opening bell, with a dramatic twelfth-round knockdown proving decisive. Anthony “La Princesa” Olascuaga continues to distinguish himself as one of boxing’s most electrifying champions... My profound respect and admiration to Yuberjen Martínez for a career-defining performance marked by extraordinary courage, world-class skill, and balls. A new player in the division."
