    Serrano a tad more technical this time was not going to beat Katie. Her best shot was as she previously fought her. A bit more wild and reckless but more output. The writing was on the wall the second I saw Amanda slower and more technical.

      What was Serrano’s plan?????

      she thought she was going to outbox the naturally quicker fighter…AT HER GAME?

      Surprised she didn’t abandon that gameplan after three or four rounds. She needed to drag Katie through the mud and wear her out. Instead, she just let her potshot and check hook to her heart’s content.

      ​​​​​​………..DAMMIT. I’m going to bed. I hope Shakur and Berlanga don’t do something like this tomorrow.

        I felt like there was something just slightly off with Amanda tonight, but Katie was 100% dialed in. The results show it. Clear victory for Taylor — her clearest, for sure.

          Yeah man I was hyping them up telling people about it.

          I had one friend who isn’t a boxing fan tuning in. Now he’s gonna go on his, “boxing sucks,” shtick again, and while he isn’t wrong, he certainly isn’t right either!

            She's never been robbed in any of these fights

            boxing is scored round by round and I have no qualms about Taylor winning more rounds in all 3.

            Serrano had bigger moments in the other fights but it doesn't mean she won more rounds.


            There's been no robberies. Just close fights.

              I feel bad for Serrano. First 2 were close and competitive, but I thought she won the first go around.

              But that was the cleanest that Katie looked.

              Good win for Katie, and the worst one as far as action.
              Agree. The third fight of trilogies aren’t usually action-packed. Usually they start to hunker down…this was another case of it and deep in my heart it’s what I expected. Tactical…but I expected it to be a lot more entertaining than that.

                I was expecting Serrano to abandon her "boxing" and turn it into a brawl. As you alluded to, that would've been her best chance to win.

                  Wrong tactic by the Serrano team. No body work and lack of pressure.

                      Amanda tried boxing with Katie. That’s playing Taylor’s game. Just a bad idea, and not just in retrospect.
