Jessica Camara is gearing up for her much-anticipated return to the boxing ring at the Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano 3 event on July 11 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The highlight of the night will be Camara challenging Chantelle Cameron for the interim WBC super lightweight title.
But beyond her boxing prowess, Jessica Camara’s personal life has also been making headlines. She found love in an unexpected place – the boxing ring itself. During a welterweight bout in Ontario, Canada, in 2017, Camara faced Mexican boxer Erika Hernandez. After securing a unanimous decision win, Camara felt a strong connection with Hernandez and asked her coach for Hernandez’s phone number. Sparks flew between them during the weigh-ins, leading to a blossoming romance.
Despite the language barrier between them – with Camara speaking English and Hernandez speaking Spanish – they found ways to communicate and nurture their relationship. Through Facebook and Google Translate, they managed to bridge the gap and eventually arranged to meet in Cancun. Their love story culminated in marriage in September 2019, and they now reside happily in Montreal, Canada.
On the professional front, Camara holds an impressive record of 14 wins, 4 losses, and 1 draw. She was on a four-fight win streak before her WBC lightweight title fight with Caroline Dubois ended in a technical draw earlier this year. Now, she is set to face Chantelle Cameron in what promises to be an electrifying showdown on Friday.
In addition to her boxing career, Camara’s personal journey with Hernandez has captured the hearts of many fans. Their love story serves as a reminder of how unexpected connections can lead to lifelong happiness.
As Jessica Camara prepares to step back into the ring, her fans eagerly await her performance at the upcoming event. Stay tuned for what promises to be a thrilling night of boxing action at Madison Square Garden.
