The highly anticipated rematch between undisputed light-welterweight champion Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano is set to electrify the boxing world once again, taking place in Texas on July 20th. Taylor, 37, emerged victorious in their previous showdown via split decision, marking an unforgettable clash in the lightweight division two years ago. Now reigning as the undisputed champion at light-welterweight, Taylor will face Serrano, who moves up in weight to challenge the Irish powerhouse.
Scheduled as the co-main event alongside Jake Paul versus Mike Tyson at Dallas’ AT&T Stadium, this rematch promises to be a spectacle. Taylor expressed excitement, stating, “This is the rematch the world has wanted to see.” Reflecting on their first encounter in New York, Taylor anticipates another epic battle, echoing the sentiments of fans worldwide.
Taylor’s journey to light-welterweight saw her suffer her first loss to Chantelle Cameron in 2023, only to reclaim victory in a rematch later that year. Meanwhile, Serrano, 35, rebounded from her defeat against Taylor to become undisputed champion at featherweight, showcasing her resilience and determination in the ring.
The upcoming rematch signifies a momentous occasion for women’s boxing, especially after their historic headline bout at Madison Square Garden. Despite initial delays, the rematch is now a reality, poised to captivate audiences worldwide, including those tuning in via Netflix, which will stream the event to its vast global audience.
With both fighters having achieved remarkable milestones since their first encounter, anticipation is at an all-time high. Taylor’s quest for dominance in multiple weight classes and Serrano’s determination to avenge her loss set the stage for an electrifying showdown. As Serrano aptly puts it, “I believe I won our first fight, but I didn’t get the decision, so this time I’m not leaving it to the judges.”
With the stage set and the stakes higher than ever, Taylor and Serrano gear up to make history once again, promising fans an unforgettable night of boxing action at AT&T Stadium.
