Headlining her own fight card on April 19, Gabriela Fundora defends her status as the undisputed flyweight champion against Marilyn Badillo. The fight in California airs on DAZN worldwide.
Fundora (15-0) earned the honor of The Sporting News' Women's Fighter of the Year after becoming the youngest undisputed champion in boxing history in 2024. The sister of super welterweight champion Sebastian Fundora has seven knockout wins.
At just 23, "Sweet Poison" has a resume many would dream of owning. She looks to continue her run and eventually become one of boxing's leading ladies.
"Women's boxing is in a great spot at the moment, and I want to be the one that inspires a new generation coming through," Fundora told Uncrowned/Yahoo Sports. "Claressa Shields, Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano, Skye Nicholson, Chantelle Cameron — these fighters are all making a big splash on the scene at the moment.

"But I believe there is plenty of pie to go around us all. I want to be the new face of the sport. I want people to come to my fights simply to watch me, not worrying about my opponent or the rest of the bill. That's what I want my legacy to be."
Badillo (19-0-1) competes in the U.S. for the first time. The top-ranked featherweight fighter via the IBF went 3-0 in 2024. The Mexican fighter looks to halt Fundora's momentum and neutralize her power.
