#Katie Taylor

[wretchedwitchpussy]

no wait what happened with the serrano-taylor fight. am I insane or did that not make sense. how did taylor win wtf. I've never seen a bigger rob in my life. four headbutts, she's closing in every chance she gets, slumping at the end and I KNOW if she wasn't hugging serrano she'd have gone down. serrano's stats were also just?????? better??? wtf happened

[luimnigh]

Here's a fantastic example of misogyny in sport:

Katie Taylor, the undisputed Lightweight and Superlightweight champion of women's boxing, is fighting defend her titles in a rematch against Amanda Serrano on November 15th. Taylor is one the best women's boxers of all time, with an Olympic gold under her belt and a 23-1 professional record.

Her fight is the undercard, the warmup act, for a fight between a Youtuber and a man who's been retired for two decades.

"unanimous vote by the judges" my ass. amanda baby you won to me please go get that awful cut caused by that dirty bitch stitched up

[gordonstanheight]

i’m sorry there’s no way? a stolen win from amanda serrano not once but TWICE???? THERES NO WAY. serrano should have won, barrios should have won…… maybe boxing is not for me! i don’t like how this bodes for the paul vs tyson fight

[bozo9000]

The Serrano vs Taylor decision is some BS. Taylor continuously headbutted Serrano and cut tf out of her eyebrow because she was stunned after a hit Serrano landed in round 1. Taylor was clinching the whole match and throwing wild punches. This is the second fight with Taylor that they ROBBED Serrano of. QUE PUÑETA ESTABAN HACIENDO LOS JUEZES. They took a point from Taylor (who should’ve been disqualified) and she still won 95-94. That means the judges had it 96-94 before WHICH IS A LOAD OF BULL!!! I don’t know what fight the judges were watching, but it obviously wasn’t the same one. LOS BORICUAS LO HACEN MEJOR🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷!!

(this was in their previous match that was also robbed from Serrano)

I had a dream that I met all my favorite athletes but whenever I spoke they would look at me like this

[tracklessreason]

Serrano is not fucking headbutting. Don't play that shit with me, how many times is Taylor gonna clinch before she gets rightfully disqualified??? What a terrible dirty fight to come on the heels of Ramos vs. Barrios

[immaterial-gorl]

Total Amanda Serrano victory idc what the judges say

[popkornking-blog]

OH THEY HATE BROWN PEOPLE

[circuitousways]

As happy as I am to see women being taken so seriously in male-dominated sports, the doctor allowing this fight to continue is disgusting. They should have treated Serrano's eye.

Paul vs. Tyson fight no spoilers

[theanticool]

So you watched #PaulTyson, saw Amanda Serrano vs Katie Taylor, and now you want to watch more women's boxing? Here's a quick guide!

I have been beating the drum of women's boxing for over a decade at this point, so I feel uniquely qualified to help people who might want to get deeper into their women's boxing bag. So here are a handful of fights to help you jump into the sport!

(I've kept it to recent examples because these fighters are still active)

Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano 1 - April 30, 2022

I'm sure most people who saw Taylor-Serrano 2 on the undercard of the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul card did not get to see the first fight. And they should. The 2nd fight picked up right where the first one left off, with these two getting in the phonebooth and getting to work at a torrent pace. Absolutely fantastic fight. Worthy of the Fight of the Year honors it got from Sports Illustrated. Was lucky enough to be there in person and it is one of my favorite memories as a combat sports fan.

2. Claressa Shields vs Savannah Marshall - October 15, 2022

If there is any woman who has claim to the title of best ever outside of Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, it is the 'GWOAT' Claressa Shields. She is a 5 division champion who was also the undisputed champion at 154lbs. She's a two time Olympic gold medalist, winning her first one at the age of 16 year old. And through her pro and amateur career, only one woman had ever beat her (on the amateur circuit) - knockout artist Savannah Marshall. Marshall has a claim to being the biggest puncher women's boxing has ever seen and has a style unlike any ever seen in women's pro boxing. So a professional meeting between the two was always going to make for a fun clash.

3. Alycia Baumgardner vs Mikaela Mayer - October 15, 2022

Of the fights on the list, this is probably the least exciting but it carried significant weight and I still found it incredibly entertaining. Mayer is a former Olympian who was on her way to unifying all the belts at 130lbs to become undisputed champion. She had marched her way through the pros, earning a 17-0 record at the time and taking out former champions like Maïva Hamadouche, Erica Farias, and Jennifer Han. Alycia Baumgardner was not that. She was a pro boxer who was in the wilds, trying to cut her teeth at a time when no American promoter was investing in women's boxing. It wasn't until Matchroom (UK promotion) gave her a shot against a different super featherweight champion Terri Harper did Baumgardner finally breakthrough, knocking the champ out in an upset victory. That set these two on a collision course for unification

4. Gabriela Fundora vs Celeste Alaniz - November 2, 2024

This one is a little different. It was less a great, competitive fight than the ascension of the next great women's boxer. Gabriela Fundora comes from a boxing family. Her brother Sebastian is a world champion up at 154lbs. So her winning a world title at only 22 years old isn't too crazy. But fighting for the undisputed (all four belts) kind of is. Celeste Alaniz is a fellow young up and coming boxer who had just knocked off former two division champion and Olympic bronze medalist Marlen Esparza. The fight between these two was fun, while it lasted. Keep an eye out on the winner here. They're going places. Like the top of the P4P list.

5. Yesica Nery Plata vs Kim Clavel - January 13, 2023

Felt wrong not putting any Mexican boxers on this one so I'm going with the light flyweight champion, Yesica Nery Plata. At 30-2, Plata has built up an impressive run as a pro. She is the WBA and WBC light flyweight champion. Sadly, the fight I most want to see from her is a rematch with Kenia Enriquez and with Enriquez up a weight class, that ship has sailed. That said, would love to see her in there with a Yokasta Valle.

[kitagal]

[gordonstanheight]
