Juarez and Robinson Kept Their Belts on a Busy Texas Fight Night
MVP Prospects 16 took place on October 18, 2025, at the South Padre Island Convention Center in Texas. Lourdes Juarez retained her WBC light flyweight title by majority decision over Yesica Nery Plata, while Desley Robinson stopped Logan Holler to keep her unified middleweight championships.
The headline title fight went to the scorecards
Juarez and Nery Plata completed ten rounds before two judges favored the defending champion 96–94. The remaining card was 95–95, producing a majority decision rather than a unanimous result.
Robinson settled her own title defense much earlier. A second-round attack ended at 1:08, leaving the Australian with both the IBF and WBO middleweight belts.
Omar Juarez and Ronny Alvarez added main-card victories
Omar Juarez defeated Omar Rosario by unanimous decision at super lightweight. The ten-round scores were 99–89, 99–89 and 97–91 after Rosario lost two points for holding.
Ronny Alvarez stopped Bruno Pola in the fifth round. The Cuban prospect added another finish while continuing his unbeaten professional start.
The preliminary card supplied further finishes and decisions
Shurretta Metcalf defeated Krystal Rosado by unanimous decision, handing the prospect her first loss. Alexis Chaparro stopped David Gutierrez Garcia in the sixth, while Sebastian Juarez finished Demarcus Layton in the opening round.
Miranda Reyes outpointed Yolanda Vega, Edgar Rosales defeated Reggie Ray Martinez by decision, and Pedro Veitia drew with Xavier Lehi Zuniga Ceron. The completed card mixed two successful championship defenses with development fights across several divisions.
