Taylor Vs. Serrano Predictions – ‘She Is A Heavy Hitter’
Katie Taylor rematches Amanda Serrano on the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson card.
It is a big spectacle as Netflix broadcasts their first-ever boxing fight, giving Taylor and Serrano the opportunity to run things back following their 2022 clash. Taylor won that fight via a split decision, which divided the boxing fan base. Since then, the pair have had contrasting fortunes. Taylor would end up losing her fight against Chantelle Cameron. However, Katie ran things back, beating Cameron in the rematch to become undisputed at junior welterweight. The win also made her undisputed in a second weight class.
Meanwhile, Serrano has racked up an impressive amount of wins. She has five victories in a row and is desperate to right that wrong. Serrano is reportedly earning around $10 million from his fight as a boxer/promoter. A win over Taylor would cap off a remarkable career. Here are the predictions from those in the boxing world.
Taylor Vs. Serrano Predictions
“I am going with Taylor – we are in the same squad,” Regis Prograis
“I will always back Katie Taylor. Breaking down the first fight and the last couple of years, I feel Taylor has had better performances and against better standard of opponents. She has also been fighting at the weight whereas Serrano has gone back down to featherweight. I haven’t been impressed by Serrano’s performances either, so I will say Taylor by a wider points decision than last time,” Skye Nicolson
“You can never usually bet against Katie Taylor but I am going to. Being out the ring for so long against a pressure fighter and, most of all, a southpaw, will cause her a lot of problems like it did in the first fight. “There isn’t a style that Taylor hasn’t come across. Even when she lost, she came back and won emphatically. But I do think everything edges to Serrano,” Natasha Jonas
“I think the rematch is going to be just as good, if not better than the first fight. I think Amanda has a point to prove but I’m going to go with Katie on points,” Hannah Rankin
Further Predictions
“I’ve been a fan of Taylor for a quite a while so I’ll be rooting for her,” Jack Catterall
“I obviously want to back Taylor. I hope the fights she had with Chantelle Cameron haven’t taken too much out of her at this stage of her career. If so, Amanda Serrano is a good puncher, worker and could out-graft her. But I do think Taylor has already shown her talent and hustle throughout her career so it’s hard to go against her,” Lawrence Okolie
“This is at light-welterweight, the weight advantage is with Katie even more so in this second fight. I see it coming down to who can dominate early. Serrano is a heavy hitter. It’s important for her to make Katie feel the pace. Will it be about wear and tear? Miles on the clock? Desire? Will Katie Taylor go to her well again? I think she can. I’m predicting a very close points victory for the queen of Ireland,” Barry Jones
