    I believe she's going on 34 next month. So there may be signs she is getting old. Personally, she looked better against Katie Taylor than this fight imho.

      People with agendas or who don’t know how to score fights probably do. She clearly lost IMO. It was competitive but Taylor definitely won 6+ rounds.
      At the end of the day I don't have a problem with anyone saying that Serrano isn't that good. Just as long as they acknowledge that this means Katie Taylor is not that good either.

        I’ve said I don’t rate Taylor that high. Very amateur’ish style. She definitely beat Serrano though.

          This is gonna sound **********ic AF, but women simply don’t have the same athletic potential as males. Sure, a highly-trained female can be better than the average guy; but a top level male athlete is always better than a top level female athlete — always. And it doesn’t matter what sport you pick. In our unrelenting quest for complete equality western society has become way too “inclusive,” to the point where reality is being skewed completely out of wack. Witness the recent phenomena of allowing biologically male athletes compete against females. They’re tearing the poor girls up. It’s a sad joke. Point is…Amanda — nor any other female boxer — can be expected to perform on the level of an elite male. It’s unfair and unrealistic. Rant over.

            Poor technique, crude, predictable. Watched her twice and she’s not impressed me at all.

            The fact that she’s a 7 division champion is an indictment on the lack of quality/depth in women’s boxing tbh.
            She whooped Katie Taylor's ass

              She is top tier of the female fighters, she is probably the best pressure fighter of all females and bst offensive fighter, most of the women fighters throw girly flurries or fight like Claressa Shields throwing a flurry an backing out Serrano she throws hard like Roberto Duran walking girls down.

              Bro she is shot already, she is good but past her prime she can't pull the trigger, in the Katie Taylor fight she had her hurt but couldn't pull the trigger after that is a sign of a fighter who is already past their peak

              She needs to retire. She had nobody to blame but herself in the Taylor fight she could have finished her but backed off several times.

Womens boxing is so bad and there is such little depth I think just about any woman who went into a gym and had some sort of athletic or natural ability and the right mindset could have success. I see these women box and if I didn't know any better I'd have thought they didn't even have any training or certainly very little. Its genuinely that bad.
                That woman who Natasha Jonas absolutely iced like was top 5 like are you ****ing kidding me, really?

                I am dead serious when I say the only true decent female boxer out there is Claressa Sheilds. She is the only one whose skills I respect. Good athlete, good solid fundamentals and ring IQ.

                Taylor also I suppose but she only ever has 4-5 good rounds in her. All her fights just follow the same pattern looks good zipping in and out for 4-5 rounds then gasses and manages to steal another 1 or 2 on the way while going absolute life and death.

                I'm sorry I just can not remotely take womens boxing serious though I will watch Sheilds & Taylor, Marshall for her power.
                Obviously a boxing fan over MMA but I'd genuinely rather watch female MMA than I would boxing. I think some of the women there actually have better hands than a lot of the female boxers actually - Shevchenko, Nunes, Aldana to name a few


                Add Alycia Baumgardner to that list, the girl got skills & power.
