Before a crowd of over 27,000 fans, Daly City's Ana Julaton (10-3-2, 1 KO) lost her WBO junior featherweight title at the Teatro Griego Juan Pablo Segundo in San Martin, Argentina, via 10-round unanimous decision to hometown challenger Yesica Marcos (19-0-1, 6 KOs) Friday night.


According to BoxingScene.com/Notifight.com:

Julaton set a fast pace in the beginning, although Marcos always displayed the harder punches. Julaton scored a knockdown in the second after a left hand to the jaw, but Marcos recovered quickly and started pumping a southpaw jab to frustrate Julaton, and followed up the jab with right cross power shots. Julaton was unable to find a solution for Marcos' hard shots to the body and well-timed uppercuts.

Scores were 98-91, 96-92, and 98-92 for Marcos.
