Universal Boxing Organization™ Female World Lightweight Champion Cecilia ”La Reina” Comunales (9-1, 6 KOs) is set to make the second defense of her title on November 3 in Entre Rios, Argentina when she takes on Brazilian Simone Da Silva Duarte (11-3, 4 KOs).

 
 

The fight will be promoted by Maravilla Box, headed by world middleweight champion Sergio Martinez, Sampson Boxing and Best Box, and will be televised live in Argentina, Panama, the Philippines and the champions native country of Uruguay.
 

Comunales won the UBO title in January 2011 by defeating another Brazilian, Halana Dos Santos, by knockout in six rounds, and has since defended the crown with a unanimous decision over Argentinean Alicia Susana Alegre. In her most recent bout, last March, she added the WBA world title by stopping Dominican Maribel Santana in one round.
 

At only 23 years of age, and with two world titles in her possession after only ten professional bouts, Comunales has achieved a lot since turning professional in 2009. But she will be in for another stern test in Da Silva Duarte, who is coming off a fresh stoppage victory on October 10.
 

Simone Da Silva Duarte made her paid debut in December 2005, and won a regional championship in only her fourth fight.
 

After making a few successful defenses, and adding a couple of non-title victories, she challenged for her first world championship in 2010, losing on points to Yesica Patricia Marcos for the WBA Super Bantamweight title.

In 2011 Da Silva Duarte returned with two victories before challenging Marcos again in a rematch, but this time she had to retire after five rounds with an injury. Now she is ready for a third crack at world honors, and should be highly motivated to finally cross the finish line and become world champion.
 

The card will also have a world bantamweight title fight between Panamanian Roberto Vasquez and John Mark Apolinario from the Philippines, as well as a Fedelatin title fight between another Panamanian, Azael Cosio, and Cesar Humberto Velez of Argentina. A jam-packed undercard with interesting match-ups will complete the big event.
