  • Date: 2003-10-07
  • Location: Pechanga Resort & Casino, Temecula, California, USA
  • Judge: 48-45

Juárez controlled most of the action with accurate punches and combinations including multiple straight rights that snapped Chavez's head back. Chavez had plenty of heart and tried to take the fight to Juárez, only to be met with crisp counters by the patient and skilful Mexican. Using stiff left jabs the México City native pummeled the New México boxer, but she never gave up. Both boxers went to the canvas during the bout, Juárez when she was caught off-balance in the second round and Chavez in the third round from a four-punch combination that ended with a clean hard right. The crowd appreciated the action- packed fight so much that promoter Dan Goossen gave both boxers a $250 bonus.
