Fights this Week

[diehard]

Undisputed female light Welterweight champion Katie Taylor (24-1, 6 KOs) did a bang-up job of beating Amanda Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KOs), winning a razor-thin 10-round unanimous decision. After a slow start, Taylor turned the tide by nullifying Serrano’s offense by using holding and repeated head clashes. Taylor cut Serrano badly with one of her bull-like head rams, forcing her to fight with just one good eye for most of the second half. In the eighth, the referee finally had seen enough and docked a point from Taylor for leading with her head in Billy Goat fashion. The judges’ scores were 95-94, 95-94 and 95-94. The head-butting was the difference in the fight.
