Since signing with Jake Paul and Most Valuable Promotions, Amanda Serrano has competed in big fights while showing why she is a true trailblazer for women’s boxing. A seven-division world champion, “The Real Deal” continues to grow at 34 years old.
Next up for the undisputed featherweight champion will be a rematch with Heather Hardy in on August 5. The fight serves as the co-main event to Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz, which airs on DAZN PPV.
Hardy, who is a former WBO featherweight titleholder, lost the belt to Serrano via unanimous decision in 2019. After time away from the sport, she is back and looking for revenge.
Serrano was happy to give her former opponent a shot at gold.
“Hardy was the first female boxer to give me the opportunity to start my journey to being the undisputed 126-pound champion,” Serrano said via Boxing Scene. “We met in New York in January 2019, and it was 10 interesting rounds. She was able to survive a dominant first round from me, but she was able to adjust and show why she is world-class. I remember we were not the headline fight, but we had the attention. Small steps to give the legacy that women’s boxing deserves.”
