Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2015-02-27, tremendous pace and very tough exchanges: Anne Sophie Mathis vs Oxandia Castillo was an awesome bout, one of the best boxing fights of 2015; it gets four stars but if we don’t find anything better this could be the 2015 female Fight of the Year!The former Wba, Wbc, Ibf super lightweight and Ibf, Iba, Wbf welterweight champion Anne Sophie Mathis entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 27-3-1 (23 KOs=85%) and she is ranked as the No.1 women’s super welterweight in the world but she won just one out of his last four fights. In fact she suffered two consecutive defeats in 2012, against Holly Holm (in their rematch – Mathis won the first bout) and against Cecilia Braekhus (=Braekhus vs Mathis), then she won the vacant Wbf super-Ww title with Yahaira Hernandez in 2013 and her last bout, against Christina Hammer, ended in a no-contest.
Her opponent, the 20-year-old (17 years younger than Mathis) former Wbo super-Ww champion Oxandia Castillo, has an official record of 13-2-2 (10 KOs=77%) and she entered as the No.4 in the same weight class; she lost twice between 2013 and 2014, against Cecilia Braekhus (=Braekhus vs Castillo) and Noni Tenge, but then ‘La Loba’ Castillo came back to win beating Yoseidy Zarzuela. Mathis vs Castillo is valid for the WBF female super welterweight title (Mathis’ first defense). Watch the video and rate this fight!

Robbery… Oxandia wins 6-4 or 7-3 rounds
I agree, when the crowd boos the hometown decision it is pretty bad… it was a great fight nonetheless, a solid 4 stars :)
what a steal.. this sport is going to become like football..
Plain Robbery! Thats why boxing is a mugs game and everyone knows it. Castillo wins 8 to 2-wasnt even close. Mathis no power and ineffective punching. Actually got the sht beaten out of her in this one-fast way to get brain damage unfortunately
That was damn close Castillo Def won the first 3 rounds hands down but they were all up for grabs after that. 6-4 is as generous as you could possibly be. I saw it 5-5 but then again I’m not a professional or an expert.
What thievery! Thanks to ATBF for bringing us those fights., the French commentator is a total sell-out!
