Eddie Hearn vs Jake Paul… rather, Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano is ON – it has been confirmed this afternoon.
Taylor, who by some is considered the greatest pound-for-pound female fighter of all time, is running out of champions to defeat. That said, Serrano is as good as any opponent she has ever come across.
Serrano, who is 42-1-1 in her professional boxing career, has been strengthening her credentials with every defence of her status as the unified featherweight champion of the world.
You felt as though the pair were on a collision course, and thanks in no small part to their promoters behind the scenes, Eddie Hearn and JAKE PAUL, the fight is on and will be taking place on April 30th.
𝐓𝐇𝐄 fight 🔥🔥@KatieTaylor vs @Serranosisters is 𝐎𝐍!

Not only do we get to see two of the finest female fighters on the planet go toe-to-toe in the ring, but the dynamic between Hearn and Paul in the build-up ought to be a hugely entertaining one.
If it wasn’t going to be already, that really might make this the biggest selling female boxing match EVER. We certainly hope so, because you’d do well to find two more deserving fighters.
