    u are not keeping up to date on stuff
    Missed that article, but what Katie says in an interview and what she and Matchroom ultimately agree to in a contract are two different things. As the article notes, KT declined to do 3 minute rounds for the first fight when Serrano pressed for it. Now she's says (demurs) "ok, i can do whatever works." I'm not convinced. I also think KT and her team realize that 3-minute rounds puts her 36-yr old self at a signficant disadvantage.

      F--k these sanctioning belt bodies. They dont hold the real power. The sooner the fighters realize these organizations are just glorified paid wh---s, the better.
      most do, but they have to play along as not many fighters can play the no belt game and win in the sport, u need the top fans for that one, belts mean cash for most guys who need them to make progress in the sport

      serrano herself is non stop boasting about her undisputed status and achievements which are not possible without the wbc either

        shes agreed to 3 mins rounds and welcomes it and says it would suit her style, what more do u want her to do, the first fight as explained a millions times was a serrano stunt and it was in the run up to the fight in a pressie and would not have been for undisputed as the wbc dont sanction 3 min lady rounds, which was what serrano herself was going on and on about, taylor said that and serrano promptly shut her pie hole

          Good for her. Women have been able to fight MMA and Muay Thai and jiujitsu under the same rules as men. Pretty obvious on here that the only people raising a stink are the "women's boxing sucks anyways" bigots. If you don't even watch, your opinion is less than worthless anyways. It's like pretending your vote is informed if you never read the news and don't do your research. You just blindly believe what other people tell you.

          I'm all for sticking it to that corrupt POS Sulaiman.

            I've got nothing but respect for Amanda Serrano. It would be great to see more fighters follow her lead. We know who the best fighters are , with or without a belt from some crooked bunch of gangsters who only siphon money from fighters purses.

              why do the women have to be equal to men? why cant they outdo them like in a game of poker, raising it to 12x4 and 15 of them as well, now what does the wbc think of that?

                This post has brought out the ****** and the incels in about equal measure. How dumb do you have to be to think that equality means a woman fighting a man ? Some real thinkers in this bunch. No wonder we ended up with a criminal reality tv star in the White House.

                  women demanded equality in tennis, now they play less and get paid the same as men in the slams & when some french guy complained about this he got an almighty rollicking from queen serena and the online brigade lol

                      Amazing.

                      Explain please. Who are they trying to be equal with?

                      Also, most women train to fight two minute rounds. What about those who don't want three minute rounds? Serrano is totally entitled to her opinion. Is there some huge movement by female boxers to have three minute rounds?

                      We do all realize that biologically, women have less dense bones, and that more punches will mean more likelihood of brain damage?

                      A person isn't an incel or ****** for pointing out biology. Or that she means equal with males. Which women aren't in terms of bone density and muscle mass.

                      Really ignorant people insult others, it's a fact.
