Whilst the majority of the talk last weekend was surrounding that incredibly controversial fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor as the co-main event provided fans with another epic. Despite losing to Tailor twice already, no one would say no to Serrano having the opportunity to fight the Irishwomen again. Now the Puerto Rican has answered some of the key questions regarding a potential historic trilogy.
In what was another razor-close fight, Serrano was on the wrong side of the scorecards yet again, with all three judges ruling the bout 95-94 (x3) in Taylor’s favour.
As a result of the Netflix commentary team, the audience in the arena, and Serrano’s team, she felt she was robbed of a victory and she took to her Twitter/ X account to publish her discontent.
Nevertheless, she returned to social media to retract these claims, congratulating Taylor on her victory.
Moreover, after labelling the bout another huge step in women’s boxing, Serrano has called for a trilogy and speaking to GQ Sports has answered some key questions regarding the fight.
Speaking on whether there will be another two years until the pair face off again, she said, “Definitely not, because I don’t have two more years in me to wait. Listen, I’m the fighter. It’s up to my team with the negotiations, but I’m up for it. I know the fans want to see it again and I’m up for giving great shows.”
She was then asked where the fight could take place.
“I’m ready to fight. We fought in New York. We fought on neutral ground. If it makes money, it makes sense. Or if it makes sense, it makes money.”
Finally, she was asked about the possibility of there being three-minute rounds instead of the standard two minutes for women’s fights.
“If I were to have the extra minute in both fights, it would’ve been a totally different fight.”
After providing two of the best fights seen in a boxing ring, let alone a women’s boxing ring, the entire boxing world would most likely love to see the rivals face off for a final third time.
