    If anyone watched it that was just giving boxing a chance , they definitely won't become fans because of the main event. Hopefully they caught the prelims and the undercard.

      I thought that Serrano won a very carefully fought fight by a comfortable margin. While the first two fights could have gone either way, she got robbed this time.

        There was nothing to rob. Fight was a dud, neither of them landed anything solid, both were too worried about getting countered. Craptastic end to a trilogy. Serrano needed to press and made it into an ugly fight but she decided to play into the boring fight. In a fight where there is no clear advantage, it will almost always go to the champion.
        It's not because she was the champion , it's because she threw those quick combinations while Serrano threw one punch at a time. Same reason why Katie got the other two fights.

          Neither Katie or Amanda did sheet. Amanda, who Jake has made rich after never earning more that 50K a fight is a big disappointment and needs her pink slip. Katie stood back and countered Amanda while Amanda stalked and did sheet. Katie didn’t do sheet also. No urgency from either women. Great atmosphere, great promotion by Jake, great disappointment by Amanda.

            The scorecards were filled out before the bell for Round 1. Just like the first two robberies.

              Because this one was so bad that HISTORY called and said that it didn't want it preserved on film forever.

                Well we have no doubts now. Katie is absolutely the goat of all time. I had zero concerns about this fight. I knew Katie would make it 3-0, Serrano might finally show some respect. Serrano will never beat Katie unless she dumps her corner and then try to win rounds. Take a bow Katie and enjoy retirement, you've put female pro boxing on the map and your work is done. It's up to the other girls now to keep it there.

                    ……….Erm, no. If this had been amateur boxing, maybe…?

                    Taylor’s punches were just much much cleaner.
