(JULY 10) Earlier today the weigh-in was held for the All-Female Boxing card that is
taking place tomorrow night at the Madison Square Garden, in New York and live
on Netflix. In the
mainliner,
Katie Taylor will attempt to have a 3-0 against Amanda “The Real Deal” Serrano,
two of the greatest female boxers in the sport.
The weigh-in for the Taylor vs. Serrano fight was a
moment of genuine camaraderie, setting the stage for what promises to be a great
showdown in this third bout between these two.
With Taylor weighing in at 135.8 pounds and Serrano
tipping the scales at 136, both fighters demonstrated not only their dedication
to their craft but also the integrity they uphold as representatives of women’s
boxing.
In the sport at times, it can be
marred by drama and animosity, it was refreshing to see Taylor and Serrano
express gratitude for the opportunity to compete against one another. Their
mutual respect for each other was obvious in their pre-fight interview after
they weighed in.
Taylor reflected on her journey through the sport,
acknowledging the highs and lows in women's boxing, and she was very humble and
looking forward to fighting Serrano.
Serrano taking a moment to thank her supporters and
fans and
express her excitement for the upcoming bout. Both fighters personify
“pure class" and their down-to-earth demeanor definitely resonates with boxing
fans!
