Comments Thread For: Katie Taylor Vows "Dominant Performance" in Persoon Rematch

I wonder if slaveroom have waited long enough for Persoon to age for this to happen which is clearly what Edward wanted to do.

Based on Delfine's last pro fight against Helen Joseph, maybe they suspect she is more battle weary and aged now. Define fought in her usual high energy manner, but unlike the Katie fight, she soon stopped standing in front of Helen, and used footwork and an in our style to minimise infighting and brawling, and this was smart once she felt Helen's strength.
Define demonstrated that she can find a way to outwork a bigger punching and stronger opponent, but it must be said that she found the fight incredibly wearing and looked beaten up and distressed by the end, whereas Helen looked almost as fresh as a daisy.
Helen Joseph is perhaps the last woman on Earth that anybody should try and slug with, and Mikaela Mayer recently demonstrated that Helen can be outboxed whilst avoiding almost any brawling, but Delfine took a lot of damage.
Katie may be streets ahead of Helen Joseph in boxing ability but styles make fights, and Katie lacks the power and strength to unduly worry Delfine or deter her from relentlessly piling forwads.

My opinion is Amanda's team should have accepted the lower purse for first fight, with a contract clause requesting some crazy amount of money to give Katie a rematch.

nope, serrano was getting full pay as taylor was the one who took the cut to make the fight happen
