Katie Taylor is one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of gloves and step into the ring. The Irish legend has helped to change the face of the sport of boxing; the Lineal and Undisputed World Champion will put it all on the line again on Friday night in a rematch of the 2022 ‘fight of the year.’
Taylor will fight Amanda Serrano on Friday night in front of a packed-out AT&T Stadium in Dallas. The pair’s rematch will be the co-main event alongside the controversial pro-bout between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, with Taylor and Serrano offering legitimacy to the evening’s action in the eyes of many.
The fight has the potential to be the most-watched women’s sporting event ever, with Netflix broadcasting the fight for their 280 million subscribers. Even if a fraction of those tune in, it could be another night of history in the Taylor camp.
