Serrano gave away the fight
Best way to put it. Serrano absolutely dominated early/mid rounds. Katie stoppage looked almost inevitable. Then Katie caught a 2nd wind and Serrano took her foot off the gas. That fight should have been a draw, maybe 96-95 if you score 3rd 10-8.
There's no way to score than 7-3 for Katie. That was a joke.
I don't think you could've scored it better than 5-5 for Serrano, but you could score it 7-3 Taylor.
Taylor was lucky not to get stopped though. A more edgy ref might've jumped in prematurely.
Incredible fight.
Easy win for Taylor besides rounds 4-6 where she got stupid and decided to trade. McKaskill's commentary was disgusting. Taylor was making her miss and landing clean counter rounds 1-3, but she was acting like Taylor was getting dominated. From round 7 on, very few of Serano's scoring shots actually landed cleanly and Katie's shots were buckling Amanda's feet even time. 7-3 Taylor, very easy fight to score.
Funny thing is i think the 2 min rounds make the fighters engage more.
Lol, you know absolute shit about boxing dude.. lmfao.
Edit: What I mean by that is NO SHIT....
I've slagged serrano off in the past as a bit of a diva but her reaction to not getting the nod in a close one & praising her opponent and what both of them achieved that night was super, congrats to both ladies & i think they served up a great event when many said it was a waste of time for some reason, taylor deserves a big fight back in ireland, now that those kinahans have been sent on the run
Taylor probably won but I didn’t think she looked good.
You can easily nick rounds when their 2 mins long.
She was gassed from the 3rd hurt multiple times and looked uncomfortable for the entire fight.
She still won more rounds though
Serrano 7-3 or 6-4, Taylor countered well at times but I cannot see how she won that many rounds, I only seen a single swing round and even that round I gave to Taylor.
I suppose you could have that 4th round a 10-8 to Serrano and the 5th was a big round for her but even then it just looked to me like Taylor had an edge in hand speed and better footwork that pulled it out for her. Not that I sat down and scored it. I just enjoyed the fight really. Happy for both of them.
If womens boxing can consistently reach that level we have 50% more fights to watch. So good for us.
I don’t feel it was that tough to score either. Taylor won the first 3 and then won 7, 8 and 9 I believe. She won 3 of the last four on my card anyway regardless of the order.
I thought 3 was a little swing-y, as was 4.
According to two score cards Serrano only won 3 rounds. In the last round Katie held and got buckled in the last few seconds. Katie showed guts but was hurt multiple times in the fight especially on the body.

We scored all the rounds exactly the same
Same, bro................
