Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano 3 full card results: Taylor beats Serrano once again to retain gold
MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, NEW YORK — Inside a packed Madison Square Garden, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano competed in another chapter of their epic rivalry. Taylor once again toppled Serrano via majority decision.
The judges scored the fight 95-95, 97-93, 97-93. The Sporting News had it a draw, 95-95.
The moment the first bell of the night rang, it felt like a special atmosphere. From cheering their favorites to various songs, Most Valuable Promotions put on a true event. It was all thanks to Taylor and Serrano, who have cultivated a massive following during their time together.
Both fighters were tentative to start. Some may have scored the first round 10-10 due to the lack of action. Serrano landed flurries at certain points, but not to the same degree as the last two fights. Perhaps she was wary of potential headbutts from Taylor. The undisputed super lightweight champion was also tentative, perhaps avoiding Serrano's power.

Taylor did showcase tremendous power at one point. Serrano returned the favor, but it wasn't enough to secure a win against the woman who is 3-0 against her.
Taylor (25-1) and Serrano (47-4-1) landed the same number of punches (70). Per Compubox, Serrano threw 382, while Taylor threw 231. In total, Taylor threw fewer on all strikes (jabs, power, total punches), her accuracy likely giving her the edge.
It's unknown what the future holds for either fighter. A fourth fight is an option. Taylor also has Chantelle Cameron to worry about (more on her later). Serrano is still the unified featherweight champion and has options.

The two will forever be connected to one another.
The entire event had a Guinness World Record of title fights to complement the two warriors in the ring.
Alycia Baumgardner wanted to make a statement after signing with MVP, and the undisputed super featherweight champion did just that, defending her gold inside MSG against Jennifer Miranda. Baumgardner's (16-1) hooks looked as sharp as her dance skills as she powered past Miranda (12-1).
Shadasia Green was one of the first signings to MVP. She grew in front of our eyes as a boxer. From a brawler to a skilled fighter, Green (16-1) stormed back in the later rounds and overcame a point deduction for holding to beat Savannah Marshall (13-2), becoming the unified super middleweight champion.
In her first fight at MSG, Ellie Scotney was magnificent. The London-born fighter cruised past Yamileth Mercado to become the unified super bantamweight champion. Sctoney (11-0) produced complete performance, landing crisp inside shots to the body and head of Mercado (24-4).

At one point, Scotney put one hand down and just slapped Mercado with a strike. It was the quickest she's ever looked. Scotney has proven to be an elite U.K. talent.
Dina Thorslund was removed from her bout against Shurretta Metcalf. It makes one wonder how she would have done against the 40-year-old Metcalf, who got battered by Cherneka Johnson. Johnson imposed her will against Metcalf, knocking her down in the fourth round.
The referee and doctor checked on Metcalf (14-5-1) twice, and it wasn't until the ninth round that the fight got called. Johnson (18-2), who replaced Thorslund, became the first fighter in the four-belt era to become undisputed at bantamweight.
The last fight of the prelims showcased what could be next for Katie Taylor. Former Taylor opponent Cameron (21-1) and Jessica Camara (14-5-1) went back and forth for the interim WBC super lightweight title. Both landed heavy shots, looking to hold gold and win a fight bonus.
Camara started hot but faltered as the fight went on. Cameron took advantage and landed hard shots on the inside. Her jabs were efficient and enough to earn the win on the scorecards.
