Boxing Match Preview: Jocelyn Camarillo (5-0-0, 0 KOs) vs. Yazmin Martinez Jimenez (3-2-2, 1 KO)

The light flyweight opener on the MVP Showcase II card pits undefeated teenage sensation Jocelyn Camarillo against battle-tested Mexican prospect Yazmin Martinez Jimenez in a four-round showcase that could steal the night. At just 21, Camarillo—fresh off signing with Most Valuable Promotions—enters as a rising star with Olympic aspirations, bringing blistering hand speed and flawless fundamentals honed from her 2021 USA Boxing National Championship win at age 17. Jimenez, 24 and gritty, counters with veteran savvy, including a recent split draw against undefeated Top Rank signee Perla Bazaldua, but her inconsistency leaves room for the California kid to shine. This Miami mismatch favors youth and momentum early, but expect Jimenez to test Camarillo’s chin with counters in a bout that highlights MVP’s investment in women’s boxing ahead of the Jake Paul-Anthony Joshua blockbuster.

Both hit the scales at 108 lbs (light flyweight limit). Camarillo’s 0% KO rate emphasizes decisions, contrasting Jimenez’s 33% finishing clip in seven pro bouts.

Recent Form

Camarillo has dominated since turning pro in 2024, building on her amateur pedigree with precise, high-volume boxing. She’s 5-0 in her last five, all by decision, averaging 62 punches thrown per round with 45% accuracy.

Last 5 Fights (Camarillo): W (UD vs. opponent TBD, Aug. 23, 2025, California), W (UD, May 17, 2025, Commerce Casino, LA), W (UD, early 2025), W (debut UD, 2024), W (UD, 2024). Form: WWWWW; undefeated streak intact, with improving footwork evident in her May LA win.

Jimenez turned pro in 2018 but heated up in 2024-25, showing resilience in draws but vulnerability to pressure. Her last five: 2W-2L-1D, with 38% power shot connect rate but 28% overall absorption.

Last 5 Fights (Jimenez): D (Split vs. Perla Bazaldua, Oct. 18, 2025, Mexico City—6 rounds), W (TKO R2 vs. opponent TBD, Mar. 2025), W (UD vs. Fatima Maldonado Heras, Jun. 15, 2024, France—4 rounds), L (decision, 2024), D (PTS, 2023). Form: Competitive but streaky; the Bazaldua draw boosted her stock, but losses came via outpointing.

Camarillo’s nine-month layoff since August risks minor rust, but her youth (21) trumps Jimenez’s activity (three fights in 2025). Simulations favor Camarillo 78% of outcomes, often sweeping early rounds.

Injury Report

No injuries reported for either fighter as of December 15, 2025 (Florida Athletic Commission and MVP updates). Camarillo’s camp was flawless, with media day mitt work showcasing sharp reflexes. Jimenez, post her October draw, recovered from a minor hand wrap tweak but is 100% cleared. Both passed pre-fight medicals without issue.

Key Fighter Matchups

A classic prospect-vs-veteran setup in the 108-lb class: Camarillo’s amateur polish and speed against Jimenez’s pro grit and occasional pop. At four rounds, it’s a quick-strike affair where positioning trumps endurance.

Hand Speed and Volume: Camarillo’s Jab vs. Jimenez’s Counters: Camarillo’s 55 jabs per round (48% connect) overwhelm shorter exchanges, as in her August UD. Jimenez counters effectively (22% rate) but absorbs 35 shots per bout—vulnerable to flurries. Edge: Camarillo (volume edge).

Footwork and Range: Camarillo’s Angles vs. Jimenez’s Pressure: Both compact (5’1″-5’2″), but Camarillo circles like her USA Nationals days, feinting to set traps. Jimenez advances linearly, landing her KO via straight right, but tires after Round 2 (as in Bazaldua draw). Edge: Camarillo (if she boxes; Jimenez closes late).

Defense and Durability: Camarillo’s Evasion vs. Jimenez’s Absorbtion: Undefeated Camarillo slips 52% of punches, never rocked. Jimenez’s chin held in her TKO win but cracked in losses (down once in 2024). Edge: Camarillo (unproven but elite amateur base).

Inside Game and Body Work: Shared Orthodox Style: Camarillo targets ribs (15% body shots), wearing foes down; Jimenez clinches to reset but lacks uppercut threat. Edge: Camarillo.

Fight History

First-ever pro clash between the two—no amateur ties. Camarillo is 5-0 in four-rounders; Jimenez 2-1-1 in similar, with her KO in a 2025 TKO. Broader trends: Camarillo 4-0 vs. Mexicans; Jimenez 1-2 vs. U.S. foes. No animosity, but Jimenez called Camarillo “talented but green” at weigh-ins.

Historical Trends:

Camarillo 5-0 as favorite (avg. +3 rounds margin).

Jimenez 1-1-1 as underdog; 67% of her fights to decision.

Unders hit 80% in Camarillo’s pro bouts (low-output style).
