THE LOWDOWN
Fresh off of a victory over Firuza Sharipova, Katie Taylor (20-0) is considered to be a true great of female boxing. Taylor is set to defend her undisputed lightweight titles against seven-division world champion Amanda Serrano. The pressure is certainly on for the Irish boxer as the bout has been billed as the ‘biggest fight in the history of women’s boxing.’
As for Amanda Serrano (42-1-1), the American is coming off of a decision win over Miriam Gutierrez back in December of 2021. With 30 wins coming via a form of knockout, there is no doubt that Serrano will be Taylor’s toughest test yet inside the ring. Fighting on home soil, Serrano will be aiming to impress the home crows this weekend.
THE PREDICTION
It’s fair to say that this fight will 100% deliver. The boxing faithful is in for a real treat this weekend. When looking at the tale of the tape, the pair are very evenly matched. From the first bell, it is essential that Serrano doesn’t go toe-to-toe with Taylor as it will only play into the Irish native’s hands. Even though Taylor’s heart and spirit are second to none, if Serrano can land the power shots early, it could be a long night at the office for Katie. Therefore, we suspect that Katie will look to go to the body early and tire Serrano. If Katie can avoid Serrano’s power shots and always keep Serrano guessing, Taylor should get the job done. We believe that Katie’s speed and movement will be the deciding factor in this fight.
