Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano summary: score card, stats and highlights
The sport of boxing needed a night like this one. 2022 was transported tonight to a golden age of boxing where the sport was a spectacle and actual match and a show by two people just giving it all. Taylor vs. Serrano was just excellent. The Puerto Ricans and the Irish didn't hold anything back. And the sport is all but happy about it. Men's boxing could take notes on this one.
Amanda Serrano came out swinging, but Katie Taylor was too fast too experienced. The first two rounds clearly went to Taylor. But on the third, Amanda Serrano put Katie Taylor against the ropes on a weird move by the champ. Her legs seemed to give out, and it seemed like Amanda could put her on the floor, but Katie just stood there, more by passion and love, pure will rather than anything physical.
On the fourth and fifth, Serrano came out swinging again, and Taylor was not able to hold her ground. It looked like Taylor would lose this by KO. However, Amanda gave all and had nothing else on the tank by the seventh. That knockout never came, and Taylor kept her cool and remembered to breathe.
Serrano could not put Taylor on the floor, and the Irish began her assault. The eighth, nine, and ten rounds were just all Taylor for the judges. Serrano was just done physically. The effort she put earlier into the fight took a toll, and Taylor knew it. This seemed to be enough for the judges to give her the fight even though she looked worse on the floor.
Both fighters knew that the fight didn't have a clear winner in that last round, and both looked for the knockout. The last ten seconds were just an open battle, an exchange of blows, no regard for strategy; defense was kaput and gone, giving everyone what they had come to watch.
Taylor wins it tonight!
