Comments Thread For: Amanda Serrano: The WBC Refused To Evolve The Sport For Equality; So, I am Relinquishing Their Title

[PNUT901]

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.

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.

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.

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

It took a fighter with no literal balls to show some figuratively.

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

why dont they take a poll of female fighters to get a read on what people want

do they want to go with what the wbc say or go with what the 3 min rounders say?

not by me, she always seems to be the one gassing at the end of her fights

Then maybe, she isn’t that smart if she is requesting 12-3’s

[HandsofIron]

Relinquish females from fighting altogether.

Amanda is known to have some of the best stamina in women’s boxing.
