Comments Thread For: Amanda Serrano: I Didn't Get The Decision, But I Think I Fought a Great Fight

superb from both girls & especially from the lady who didnt get the nod, which is always difficult, i think taylor should rematch again in the garden & run it back again just as but if shes coming to the end of her career and wants a big one back home which she hasnt had in years then thats good too i would say, she could pack a big stadium with serrano as the dance partner and both get paid really well & great fight guaranteed too

Wow! She is absolutely amazing, graceful and humble. Even though she didn't get the nod in which she and many others believed that she deserved and yet she remains both gracious and grateful even in defeat just for the opportunity. It's totally remarkable!

I just watched it and didn't realize it was 10 rounds with 2 minute rounds. What's up with 2 great female champions not fighting the distance? In ultra extreme running sometimes the women beat the men by a longway. So no excuses!

I think it was a close fight and basically whoever someone wanted to win beforehand - that's who won it for most people. Hope there is a rematch. Personally I saw it is as a definite draw.

Your greedy bro in law would now demand a large share of your money.

...and if it were men in there, NSB would have no problem agreeing that Serrano was landing the harder shots. But since it wasn't men in there...all of a sudden hard punches don't matter anymore. So

Maidana's shots that landed on Floyd were harder than the shots Floyd landed on him. He even wobbled Floyd at the end of the 4th round. Obviously Maidana won then...

I dont really know. It's clear that any round that was competive Katie was awarded. I was watching people go over it and claim katie won it with the Jab, I felt her Jab was ineffective, I felt her range was poor. she landed at a higher percentage but I felt Serranos punches were much cleaner and more powerful.

I'm sure I could sit down and find enough close rounds and rounds katie did infact clearly to win to warrant a DRAW and maybe 96-94 but I feel some liberties were taken here. I wasnt blown away with how much better Katie was than Amanda like so many others.

In a close fight amanda failed to finish strong whereas taylor caught a second win and took rounds 8,9,10.

And Amanda should be very proud, has nothing to be ashamed of, even her trainer who has acted like an idiot in the past kept it very classy.

Great fight--both fought hard and no excuses from either. Serrano is a 126 lb fighter so she is exceptional for moving up to fight the best at 135.

This is a real champion. Knows she could have won in a fight but recognises that she may have lost on rounds. I had a draw personally. Coming up two weight classes to show that strength and power is more than impressive. If there’s a rematch I’ll definitely be watching.
