Amanda Serrano (44-2-1, 30 KOs) took care of business last night (Saturday, February 4, 2023) live on DAZN from inside the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York, defending her WBC, WBO and IBF featherweight titles while winning the WBA featherweight title from Erika Cruz (15-2, 3 KOs).
Every fighter had their moment in the main event, but Serrano was able to take control in the middle frames. His volume reigned supreme again as Serrano began bloodying Cruz along the ropes. Cruz held on and refused to go down, but Serrano once again proved she was the best female featherweight in the world and walked away with the unanimous decision victory.
Check out some of the actions below:
After the fight was over, fight fans got exactly what they were hoping for. It has been announced that Serrano will fight Katie Taylor in a rematch on May 20 in Dublin, Ireland. Their first meeting in April 2022 turned into one of the biggest fights in women’s boxing history and a contest so close it needed a rematch.
Promoter Eddie Hearn worked hard to book the rematch in Ireland – even enlisting help from Conor McGregor – but there were plenty of hurdles to jump through. Hearn had to work some magic to close the deal, but it’s going to be one hell of a show come May.
