A measured beginning became a close-range battle
Trinidad started patiently as Parra moved forward, and neither established a clear advantage during the opening exchanges. The fight became more aggressive in the third, when both landed heavy punches near the ropes.
Trinidad spent more time advancing in the fourth, but the middle rounds remained closely contested. Parra’s willingness to press and answer punches prevented the unbeaten contender from taking comfortable control.
The final rounds kept the outcome uncertain
Trinidad stalked Parra with heavier shots in the ninth, looking to strengthen his position before the closing round. Parra continued finding meaningful replies rather than simply defending.
A right hand from Parra in the tenth prompted another exchange in the center. The fighters continued trading through the final bell, leaving the judges to assess a demanding contest.

Trinidad retained the WBC Continental Americas featherweight belt, but the result did not award him a victory. His record became nineteen wins and two draws, while Parra moved to twenty-three wins, one loss and one draw.
The bout was Trinidad’s third appearance of 2025. It ended with his unbeaten record intact and his championship retained, although Parra’s persistent pressure ensured that neither boxer left with a winning decision.
