Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano's first encounter was a thrilling and razor-close bout that highlighted their impressive boxing records. Serrano, a champion across seven weight divisions, is one of the most decorated fighters in women's boxing, while Taylor stands out as one of the few to have claimed undisputed titles in two different weight classes. At 38 years old, Taylor has accumulated 23 wins with just a single loss, which she later avenged against Chantelle Cameron. Serrano, two years younger, boasts an extensive career record of 47 wins, two losses, and a draw, making her one of the most experienced female boxers today.
Their initial fight in April 2022 at Madison Square Garden was an instant classic, with Taylor narrowly securing a split-decision victory. The matchup showcased their complementary styles, with both fighters delivering a high volume of punches, landing a combined total of 320 strikes over 10 intense rounds. Since then, Taylor suffered her first defeat but bounced back with a win, while Serrano continued to add to her legacy, becoming the undisputed featherweight champion with five more victories.
In their upcoming rematch, Taylor will put her WBC, WBA, IBF, and WBO light-welterweight titles on the line, including the Ring Magazine belt. Their previous bout was contested at lightweight for the same titles. Though Serrano held a world title at light-welterweight back in 2018, this fight presents a fresh challenge as she aims to reclaim dominance in a division where Taylor currently reigns supreme.
