Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor are to fight at Madison Square Garden
A huge women’s boxing match will take place on 30th April at Madison Square Garden. Amanda Serrano will be up against Katie Taylor and many are claiming this to be one of the biggest boxing matches ever in the history of the sport.
Taylor comes into this clash as the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO and The Ring female lightweight champion.
Serrano has a chance of getting all the gold, and she had some great words for a few people before the clash.
The Puerto Rican posted an update on Twitter where she thanked Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian, her managers.
She also thanked Eddie Hearn before claiming she would make history alongside Taylor.
History will be made since this is the first women’s boxing match to headline Madison Square Garden.
Taylor comes into this clash undefeated in her professional boxing career. The Bray Bomber, as she is called, is an Olympic champion and has won all of her 20 fights in her professional career.
She has retained all of her titles in her last five fights and comes into this clash in a rich vein of form.
Serrano, for her part, has won several titles in the featherweight division and last lost in 2012. She has won 28 fights on the spin since and holds an impressive 42-1-1 record in her professional career.
Serrano is the younger fighter by being two years younger than the champion. She does have more professional experience than her rival and it will be interesting to see how the pair go at it at Madison Square Garden.
