Please note that Jackie Nava's fight yesterday was not only a WBA eliminator, but she also defended her WBC interim Superbantamweight title successfully.

Sorry, I was wrong. It was indeed only a WBA eliminator. From the WBC page:

The World Boxing Council has been officially notified by Mr. Guillermo Brito that the Superbantamweight interim world champion, Jackie Nava, from Mexico, has decided not to take part in the mandatory fight against the champion of the division, Alejandra Oliveras, from Argentina, a bout that was scheduled to be promoted in October by Box Latino, which obtained the rights to promote such bout with a bid of $34,000 dollars.

Our President, Jose Sulaiman, has expressed his great sorrow regarding this situation, as Jackie Nava was the first WBC female champion and has been an icon of female boxing in our organization, and he deeply regrets that her managers have decided to have her fight in an elimination fight for the WBA, being a degradation to the level of the great champion Jackie Nava, who never had to go through an “elimination” fight in our organization.

The World Boxing Council wishes Jackie Nava the best of lucks, and wants to let her know that she will always have a very special place in this organization.

Please, change Jackie Nava's last fight. It was, as aforementioned, only a WBA Superbantamweight eliminator. She was stripped off her interim WBC female title though could not defend it in her last match on September 15. This because Nava didn't want to fight WBC Superbantam champ Oliveras in October.
