Han Vs Holm And Rivera Vs Gonzalez In San Juan

Holm’s résumé is already set. At 44, the former multi-division boxing champion is attempting to claim a world title in the ring for the first time in more than a decade. Her absence from boxing coincided with the period when women’s boxing began receiving sustained promotional backing after the 2016 Olympics. Rather than remain idle, Holm shifted fully into mixed martial arts, compiling a lengthy run with the UFC and producing one of the sport’s defining moments with her 2015 win over Ronda Rousey.

Her return to boxing came last June, when she shut out Yolanda Vega over ten rounds on a Most Valuable Promotions card in Anaheim. The move to MVP was a practical one. The promotional outfit has become a central force in women’s boxing, and Holm re-entered the sport under stable conditions rather than on the margins.

The central question is age and absence. Holm has not spent much time in a boxing ring over the last decade, and 44 is unforgiving in any combat sport. Han is fresher and younger, but also far less seasoned. In a fight where power is unlikely to decide matters, the edge often goes to fundamentals and comfort under pressure. Holm’s experience in managing rounds and pace may still be enough. A decision win for Holm would not be surprising.

Yankiel Rivera vs Jonathan “Bomba” Gonzalez

Yankiel Rivera’s rise paused last time out. The unbeaten flyweight was held to a majority draw against Angelino Cordova, a result that preserved his record but trimmed some of the momentum he had built. Without a knockdown or a point deduction, the scorecards might have told a different story. Cordova is a difficult assignment, but the bout exposed limits Rivera will need to address.

Jonathan Gonzalez returns after a long absence. The former junior flyweight titleholder has not fought since October 2024, when a first-round injury led to a stoppage loss against Anthony Olascuaga. At 34, Gonzalez is experienced but coming off a layoff and moving again at 112 pounds, a division where his results have been uneven. His durability has been questioned before, and time away rarely improves that concern.

Rivera is not known as a puncher, but he does not need to be. Gonzalez was more effective at 108 than at flyweight, and the question here is less about skill than condition. If Gonzalez returns close to form, the fight could tighten. If not, Rivera’s youth and consistency should carry him through. A decision win for Rivera feels like the safest reading of the matchup.
