CSAC’s Andy Foster regrets sanctioning Golden Boy Boxing’s seven-second KO mismatch

Friday night’s seven-second KO victory for Seniesa Estrada over Miranda Adkins was indeed the fastest win in women’s boxing history, but it’s been loudly argued that the fight should’ve never happened to begin with. Upon further review, it’s one that California State Athletic Commission executive officer Andy Foster would like to have back.

“I’m critical of myself for approving that fight,” Foster said to Bloody Elbow on Monday.

Adkins took on Estrada on short notice — Foster noted that there was enough time for Adkins to go through California’s COVID-19 protocols — in what was DAZN’s first live boxing event since the pandemic led to numerous event cancellations and postponements.
