Meanwhile, Badillo was coming off a unanimous decision win over Graciela Cortes Aguillar. The fight against Fundora marked her first competitive appearance outside Mexico.
Fundora used her height and reach in the fight to discourage Badillo's advances. The Mexican absorbed several clean strikes through the initial rounds, but the damage did not seem to have a visible impact on her performance.
Fundora was the more active fighter and landed her strikes with greater accuracy. Badillo, however, landed a few good shots but struggled with her opponent's reach.
Fundora continued to dominate in the later rounds, stunning Badillo with stinging straight lefts and body shots several times in Round 6. She continued to increase the volume in Round 7, consistently launching high-volume attacks.
Badillo, trapped against the ropes, collapsed to the canvas with the cumulative impact of Fundora's punches and could not answer the 10-count. The referee waved off the fight, declaring Fundora the winner by knockout. The win marked the first defence of Fundora's undisputed women's flyweight titles.
Official result: Gabriela Fundora def. Marilyn Badillo by T/KO (R7, 1:44)
Co-main event: Super welterweight - Charles Conwell vs. Jorge Garcia
In the co-main event, undefeated super welterweight contender Charles Conwell faced Jorge Garcia. While Conwell had largely competed against relatively lesser-known opponents so far in his career, a potential win over Garcia was expected to set him up for a title shot in the future.
Meanwhile, Garcia was on a seven-fight win streak heading into the fight, with his latest win coming against Kudratillo Abdukakharov in December 2024.
In the fight, Conwell took the pressure-heavy approach, trying to enter the close range to inflict damage. Meanwhile, Garcia relied on his footwork and used his jab and body shots to keep Conwell away.
The bout saw both men work around each other's strategy and have success. Conwell did his best work when he got on the inside. Meanwhile, Garcia landed the most meaningful strikes from the outside and also while intercepting Garcia's entries.
Two of the three judges scored the contest in Garcia's favor, declaring him the winner by split decision.

Abdullaev took control of the fight from the opening bell, never allowing Rodrigo to find consistent success.
A left hook from Abdullaev during a fiery exchange in Round 4 dropped Rodrigo. While he answered the 10-count and continued to fight, he did not offer a lot in terms of offence.
Abdullaev continued to dominate with his striking in the subsequent rounds, while it appeared Rodrigo remained committed to defending himself to avoid the most damaging shots coming in his direction.
