The undisputed featherweight boxing champion of the world, Amanda Serrano, announced Wednesday that she has signed a deal with PFL to fight in MMA in the promotion’s Super Fight Division.

Serrano expects to compete in the flyweight division but doesn’t have a targeted date for her debut.

The boxing champion has a pro MMA record of 2-0-1 record and won her most recent MMA fight via submission at iKON FF 7 back in 2021.

”I’m officially with the best! (PFL MMA) baby,” Serrano wrote on social media.

Amanda Serrano will defend her straps

On Saturday, the 34-year-old world boxing champion will defend her undisputed belts in a rematch against Heather Hardy. The title fight will serve as the co-main event of the Paul vs. Diaz card at the American Airlines Center in Dallas.

Amanda Serrano is the only female, and Puerto Rican, to win world titles in more than four weight classes. She is currently the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, IBO, and The Ring featherweight champion.

In 2022, Serrano fought Katie Taylor in the first women’s boxing match to headline New York’s Madison Square Garden. The fight is considered to be the biggest women’s boxing match of all-time. Serrano lost the fight via split decision.
