she already got beat at her homecoming. New York is her home.
Fighting in Puerto Rico is clearly meaningful to her: "From my very first fight, I always went up in that ring with my Puerto Rican flag, because I am truly a proud Boricua, a proud Latina. And just to have Puerto Rico backing me up, it means everything."
Serrano ducking Skye Nicolson was disappointing. But very typical of her. I don't care for her excuses to why it didn't happen. You just knew she wasn't going to face her.

That seems like a stretch for why Serrano dropped the WBC title, especially given that the WBC had not yet mandated the fight with Nicolson. But you and I otherwise agree on one thing, which is that it would be good to see Serrano defend against the rising contenders at 126 (if she doesn't otherwise take on even bigger fights like the Taylor rematch).
Thanks for reading, and thanks for replying!
