Camila Anae Zamorano Encinas (born 26 December 2007), known as La Magnífica, is a Mexican professional boxer. She has held the WBC female atomweight title since October 2025. At 17 years old, she became the youngest female boxer in WBC history to win a world title and the first from Sonora to do so.
Early life and amateur career
Zamorano was born on 26 December 2007 in Hermosillo, Sonora.[2] She began training in boxing at the age of 11 under the guidance of her father and coach, Eleazar Zamorano.[3]
As an amateur, she compiled a record of 53 wins and four losses, winning multiple regional and state titles.[4] Due to limited opportunities to compete against girls her age, she moved into the professional ranks while still a high school student.[5]
Professional career
Zamorano made her professional debut in 2023. On 12 October 2024, she won the WBC female atomweight International title by defeating Norj Guro at Arena Sonora in Hermosillo, becoming the first female boxer from Sonora to secure an international title.[6]
She defended her title on 25 January 2025, defeating Yoselyn Pérez by unanimous decision in San Luis Potosí.[7]
On 14 June 2025, aged 17 years and 180 days, Zamorano won the vacant WBC interim female atomweight title by defeating Mika Iwakawa on a unanimous decision in Hermosillo, making her the youngest person to hold such a championship in the organization's history.[8][9][10]
On 15 October 2025, she was elevated to full WBC female atomweight champion following the retirement of Tina Rupprecht, who had been the title holder.[11][12]
Zamorano made the first defense of her WBC female atomweight title against Sana Hazuki in Hermosillo on 25 October 2025. She won the bout by a unanimous decision.[13][14]
