After two formidable combat fighters of the year, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano are ready to redo everything.

Taylor and Serrano will share the ring for the third time in a battle for the Taylor Super Léger Championship on Friday July 11 at Madison Square Garden in New York. The fight was announced Thursday by Jake Paul’s most precious promotions.

Netflix, who broadcast the second Taylor fight against Serrano as part of the Mike Tyson against Jake Paul Undercard, will also show the trilogy competition.

Taylor against Serrano 3 is at the head of an entirely female combat card, with other fights to be confirmed.

The Serrano of Ireland and the Serrano of Puerto Rico met for the first time in April 2022, when they sold Madison Square Garden with an undisputed light title which was largely considered to be one of the best fights of the year. This first fight brought the feminine side of sport to the foreground of the boxing conversation – and a night when they were in competition with a fight of male unification between Shakur Stevenson and Oscar Valdez on ESPN.

On this occasion, Taylor won a fractional decision on Serrano to maintain his undisputed light title. The two then received an even greater scene for their revenge, a place of main co-event in Paul against Tyson, which was the most watched boxing event in the world in 2024.

Women have once again proven that they belonged to such a platform, exchanging leather for 20 minutes to produce a spectacular slugfest, Taylor being declared winner by a single point on the three dashboards.

This time, however, the decision was much more controversial. A large part of the fans estimated that Serrano deserved the head sign on Taylor. And so on on July 11, they will settle the score once and for all in the first major fighting trilogy in the history of female boxing.

Taylor against Serrano will join a selected list of trilogies where the first and second fights were won by the same fighter. The most recent high level example is the three fights between Tyson Fury and Derek Chisora ​​between 2011 and 2022, the three fights being filled by Fury.

In the case of Fury-Chisora, there was little need for a third fight. This is a very different situation between Taylor and Serrano, especially after the controversy after their second meeting.

A better comparison for Taylor against Serrano would be the Alan Minter-Kevin Finnegan trilogy in the 1970s. Minter and Finnegan have boxed three times in three consecutive years. Although Minter won the first two, the judges’ decision in the second fight was controversial – just like Taylor against Serrano II – and there was little complaint when a third fight was made.

The second fight between Taylor and Serrano broke the boxes of boxing viewers for previous women, attracting around 74 million average viewers on Netflix last November.
