00:00A couple forever rivals meet in what could be the final chapter of one of the most important

00:05rivalries in boxing history with Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano headlining at Madison Square Garden.

00:13The last time they did it was the first time it was a female main event at Madison Square Garden.

00:18Now it's just two of the all-time greats going head-to-head trying to settle a score.

00:23This is your preview for Katie Taylor against Amanda Serrano III from Madison Square Garden.

00:30It is an epic rivalry that has been very, very close and it maybe comes to an end this weekend.

00:47Tonight, actually, as it is Katie Taylor against Amanda Serrano for boxing greatness, basically.

00:55There's unified titles on the line, yes, but there is a number one pound-for-pound ranking

00:58that is up for grabs as well, and maybe goat status also.

01:04So, you know, no pressure going into this big bout at Madison Square Garden.

01:07So, let's break it down.

01:09You have Katie, the Bray Bomber-Taylor, who is 39 years old, standing at 5'5",

01:14with a 66-inch reach out of the orthodox stance, born in Bray, Ireland.

01:20And she now trains in Connecticut with a record of 24-1, 6 wins by knockout, 18 requiring the

01:27judges' scorecards, including the last one, where she picked up a decision win over Amanda

01:31Serrano on the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul undercard in November of 2024 at AT&T Stadium.

01:39She has two wins over Amanda Serrano.

01:41Neither of them have been overly popular, as Serrano outlanded her in the last bout.

01:47I believe in both bouts, actually.

01:49She's 2-0 against Serrano, both by decision.

01:51She is 3-0 against fighters with the last name of Serrano, because she beat Amanda's sister,

01:57Sydney, back in 2018.

01:59Taylor had a 13-fight win streak snapped by Chantel Cameron, who she then avenged that

02:05loss against.

02:06Her last KO win was in 2019 against Rose Volante in a unification bout at lightweight.

02:11She is the undisputed, super lightweight champion, and with her opponent this evening, is the

02:17first woman to headline a boxing card at Madison Square Garden.

02:21The challenger is Amanda, the real deal Serrano, 36 years old, at 5'5 and a half, with a 65-inch

02:27reach.

02:28She is a Southpaw, who now resides in Brooklyn, New York, after being born in Puerto Rico.

02:33She is 47-3-1 on the career, with 31 wins by knockout.

02:38There's also a no contest on the resume there.

02:42Her last fight was the unanimous decision loss against Taylor back in November of 2024.

02:48She has lost to Taylor twice.

02:50The loss in the first one ended a 28-fight winning streak.

02:53The loss in the second one ended a 6-fight win streak.

02:56She certainly brings more knockout power into the cage, or into the ring, sorry, with knockout

03:01wins in 7 different weight classes.

03:03She is the unified featherweight champion, holding multiple belts there, and has won the

03:09most titles in women's boxing history, with 7 divisions that she can claim a crown to.

03:15This is the rivalry of all rivalries in women's boxing, and has really put both fighters on

03:23the map to the point where they are headlining a show on Netflix coming up later on tonight.

03:28Part of it has been the action, part of it has been just how good these boxers are.

03:34They have put on two absolutely classic fights, and they are, I think without a shadow of a

03:41doubt, the fighters of their generation.

03:43The issue is that part of the build for this is around the controversy.

03:48I've said it in the lead up to it.

03:50Not often do you lose twice to someone and get a trilogy fight out of it, especially immediately

03:56after the second one.

03:57But that's where we are at right now, because 62% of the media scored the second fight for

04:03Serrano, and both times you have both of the first two fights.

04:092022 at Madison Square Garden, it's a Taylor split decision with two judges seeing it 96-94

04:15for Taylor, and one seeing it 96-94 for Serrano.

04:20You have Taylor in the second one getting it 95-94 on three judges' scorecards.

04:27So we are talking about razor, razor-thin margins between these two.

04:34And so to say that it is for the undisputed championship today, this rivalry has been anything

04:39but undisputed, despite one side being undefeated over the other.

04:44It is a classic matchup where you have the technical boxer, the counter-striker in Taylor,

04:50going up against the volume power puncher that is Amanda Serrano.

04:55A lot of people are picking Serrano in this fight.

04:58A lot of people are saying this one will go to a decision, which I think that there is

05:02no reason to believe that it won't.

05:04I do think if you want a bit of a value play, just to take the under on that and say,

05:08yeah, you know what, at some point, these two who are both past the age of 35, one of

05:13their chins may fail at some point here, or a clash or whatever, like we saw a pretty bloody

05:18fight in that second encounter.

05:20So if you want to take just that the judges won't be required, I think there could be a

05:24little bit of value in that.

05:26A lot of people are picking Serrano because you can make a very compelling case that she

05:31won the first two fights.

05:33I do think there is a little bit of oversimplifying going on with that.

05:37A lot of people thought Serrano won the first two, as mentioned.

05:42But I don't think it was, well, yeah, she won by nine rounds.

05:46I don't know what we're talking about here.

05:47Like, if Taylor is winning, then she is winning by one or two rounds.

05:52So it's not like neither fight has been close and Serrano just was robbed or something like

05:58that.

05:59These have been very, very close fights.

06:01And this likely will be that again.

06:03I do think, though, coming off of a second fight where she thought the judges didn't

06:08go her way, I do think that Serrano is going to adjust things a little bit.

06:15And I don't think she can put more pressure on, but I do wonder if she looks for, and it's

06:19because you want to say like, oh yeah, more impactful shots.

06:22She was landing more impactful shots in this.

06:23But I just wonder if there is a bit more of a change in the game plan to make sure that

06:28she doesn't get hit as much and make it a little bit more judge friendly.

06:33Like, I just, I feel like she is going to adapt things a little bit in this one.

06:36Not that Taylor won't, but I feel like Serrano has a few more ways that she can kind of improve

06:43on and alter things from the first couple of fights that will allow her to get the win

06:47here.

06:47So I know that it has been the trendy pick.

06:49I am going to pick Serrano, but not just because, oh, well, she actually won the first

06:52two fights.

06:53It is because I think that there is going to be a couple of adjustments made from her

06:57camp to maybe make this a little bit more on the judge friendly side to try to get a

07:04little bit more, a little bit more involved when it comes to winning these fights.

07:10And I also think that there was maybe a recognition that she started a little bit too late in the

07:15last one.

07:15And I think that's probably not going to be the case in this bout.

07:18So I am picking Serrano to win this one.

07:20If you want to go the conspiracy route, if Taylor wins this fight, it's done.

07:26If Serrano wins this fight, you can probably do one more, at least, maybe even two.

07:31So in terms of maybe hoping the cash cow can continue, I do wonder if maybe the judges

07:38have a bit of a lean on the Serrano side coming up tonight.

07:41But overall, there isn't a whole lot that separates these two.

07:45They are incredibly talented.

07:47They are incredibly tough and they are incredibly evenly matched.

07:51And I think it's going to be a phenomenal bout coming up on Friday night.

07:56I just think Serrano has a bit of the edge going into this trilogy bout.
