After a lot of twists and turns, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano will face off inside a boxing ring. The Sporting News looks at how this dream fight became ...

It will be a fight and night to remember. The deal eased fans' concerns that it would eventually become too late for Taylor vs. Now, in 2022, these two warriors will step inside the ring and do what they do best. Taylor and Serrano each fought three times in 2021. Topics ranged from pay to the home broadcast to where the fight would be held. Lou DiBella, who was promoting Serrano at the time, attempted to get the fight made. Taylor proved in one fight that Madison Square Garden was the place. It was Hardy's first loss in a career that began in 2012. In 2018, Taylor, already a champion, faced Serrano's sister Cindy at Boston's TD Garden. Taylor won via unanimous decision to retain the WBA and IBF lightweight titles. Taylor made her pro debut in 2016. Serrano made her pro debut in 2009. For the first time in Madison Square Garden's history, two female boxers are scheduled to main-event a boxing card.

Katie Taylor is the biggest name in women's boxing, the undisputed champion at 135 pounds, No. 1 pound-for-pound, a box office draw from New York to London. She ...

“All the sacrifices that I have made along the years are worth just for this moment alone,” says Taylor. “But this isn’t just for myself and Amanda. This is for the next generation of fighters. . . . We have a very good relationship.” She is settled in Connecticut after buying a house in Manchester in 2019. Training without her father, says Taylor, was “like missing my right arm.” At the Games, Taylor was eliminated in the quarterfinals. “That’s all because of Katie,” says Hearn. “I don’t think she realizes what she has done for women’s boxing.” What it boils down to, sources close to Taylor say, is this: MTK Global, a boxing management company founded by alleged drug trafficker Daniel Kinahan, has been heavily involved in boxing in Ireland. A Taylor show in Ireland would have to include MTK fighters. “She f---ing looked unbelievable,” says Hearn. “Sitting in the pocket, ripping body shots.” Equally important: More than 1,000 ticket-paying Irish fans came to support her. In August 2012, Taylor stood on a dais in Bray, a sea of humanity stretched out in front of her. When the Olympics added women’s boxing in 2012—a landmark moment widely credited to public pressure applied by Taylor in the years leading up to it—Taylor stormed to gold in the 132-pound division. “It was the toughest decision I probably had to make,” she says. In ’16, Taylor, her career at a crossroads following an early exit at the Olympics, emailed Enamait. She asked whether he would work with her, offering to fly to Connecticut. “She essentially trained herself for the Olympics,” says Enamait, “which was insane.” Enamait liked what he saw and suggested Taylor turn pro. “The sound, the smell, the people—I just loved all of it.” Three months before the Rio Olympics, Taylor lost in the semifinals of the world championships, ending her five-year reign.

Taylor looked solid in the opening rounds and landed a stiff right hand early that hurt Jonas. Jonas, however, landed big body blows to make it competitive in the second half of the fight. The final three rounds became a game of cat and mouse, with both fighters leaving it all on the line. If the round didn't come to a close, that would have been the end for Volante. The fight did end for Volante, who defended the WBO title twice, in the ninth, after a large gash on her nose caused when the two clashed heads. Toward the end, both swung away to the delight of the crowd. Taylor looked sharper in the later rounds, which was enough to secure a unanimous decision win. Taylor was one step closer to unifying the division when she fought Rose Volante for the WBO lightweight title. Taylor used combinations early and even dropped Volante in the opening round.

KATIE Taylor may finally get a chance to fight in Ireland, according to Matchroom boss Eddie Hearn.

“It is quite unusual to come to a show and see more cameras around another promoter. “This feels like the biggest fight I have ever been involved in in a different kind. It is nice to see an actual event like this stand alone on its own qualities. It is going to be a thriller,” he predicted. He's not looking at me thinking: ‘I don’t like Eddie Hearn. I am not going to push this show that hard.’ The event was not open to the public. Coincidently, just as Hearn was being interviewed by the Irish media in Madison Square Garden, Paul was surrounded dozens of reporters and camera men a few yards away. “I just think it would be very disappointing if she never got the chance to go to Ireland and let her have that moment. “Somebody said to me about the great turn out from the fans at the work-out. “I have got to know Katie over the years. Most people have the voodoo dolls out and are sticking pins in me and hoping for rain when we have outdoor events. She is going to be very dangerous.
