Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano was the BEST Boxing Fight of 2022!

Some of the most memorable and compelling fights in boxing history have taken place between champions with opposing personalities and opposing styles. Well, the undisputed lightweight title clash between Ireland’s self-effacing and quick-fisted champion Katie Taylor and Puerto Rico’s self-assured and power-punching challenger Amanda Serrano followed that very narrative and ignited into the pure flame.
This classic battle is now officially The Sporting News Fight of the Year.

Además ambas tienen el título de la revista The Ring.

Amanda got robbed.

[@Recklyss]

I was good til they started talking about glass ceilings. If women supported women's sports the way men do none of that stuff would even exist. Mainstream media and advertising caters to women and women make 80% of consumer buying decisions. If women would start supporting sports instead of the Kardashians all these athletes would get the pay and recognition you think they deserve.

[@csilagh4148]
