Leonela Yudica Was Born in San Juan the Year a Moderate Earthquake Hit the Argentine Province

She was born Leonela Paola Yúdica Andino on September 18, 1988, in Santa Lucia, a town in the province of San Juan, Argentina to Monica Andino and an unidentified father. Her birth was quite remarkable as it occurred a few months after the May 30, 1988 earthquake of magnitude 5.8 hit the province about 50 km away.

Howbeit, such occurrences leave a trail of destruction, it is a constant reminder that Argentina is an earthquake-prone location while San Juan is known for better things like its great wine.

Away from the environment Yudica was born in, she grew up alongside a brother named Esequiel Andino.

Leonela Yudica Made Her Professional Debut in 2012

The combat sports fighter reached a milestone in her career when she turned professional in 2012 when she faced off with Soledad del Valle Frias. Though it was her debut, Yudica proved to be a tough contender when she won via a Unanimous Decision. Notably, she impressed many with this win, and true to their expectations for the emerging fighter, she set a winning trait in her subsequent matches.

To show for her hard work and commitment, Yudica won the Argentina flyweight title in 2014. Notably, this win also came in her first ten-round bout. Shortly after, she secured another title, this time, it was the coveted IBF female flyweight title which she won via split decision against Gabriela Bouvier.

While she was able to retain 16 wins out of 20 career fights as of filing this report as well as defend the IBF title 9 times, she suffered her first loss via a split decision to Arely Mucino on October 29, 2022. Thankfully, she did not allow this setback to stop her. She won her next match against Tamara Elisabet on April 29, 2023.

The 36–year-old is Also a Grade School Teacher and Community Mobilizer…

…Who Won a Home in a Community Raffle Draw

Considering all the time and commitment she puts into seeing her local community Chimbas grow, it was quite an important moment for the fighter when she won a house in a raffle draw in December 2018. Notably, the draw was organized by the Provincial Housing Institute with the final prize, a house located in the coveted neighborhood of Maipú complex, in the capital.

Out of the 2,386 participants, only 14 houses were available and her number, 2353, was picked in the 5th place, thus, making her a house owner. Apparently, her luck was high as her number was picked again, however, it was dropped as she had already won a house.
