Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano are running it back again.
Most Valuable Promotions announced on Thursday that Taylor and Serrano will meet in a trilogy bout July 11 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The bout, which will be for the undisputed super lightweight championship, headlines an all-women’s boxing event that will stream on Netflix.
The Hollywood Reporter was first to report the news.
“This is more than just a fight — it’s a celebration of the unmatched talent of women in boxing,” Most Valuable Promotions co-founders Jake Paul and Nakisa Badarian said in a joint statement. “Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor have already shattered barriers and inspired millions, and this trilogy fight at the iconic Madison Square Garden will be another historic step forward for women’s sports.
“This all-women’s card is not only a testament to how far the sport has come but also the beginning of an even greater push from MVP to elevate the next generation of female fighters. Unlike other incumbents in boxing, we have, are, and will always champion women as equals to men, treating them with supreme respect and we will never compromise on those values. Thank you to Netflix and MSG. We’re honored to bring this groundbreaking event to life and remain steadfast in our mission to build and invest in lasting opportunities for women in boxing. This event is the definition of W.”
Taylor was victorious in their first two meetings, but the decisions in her favor were very, very close. Their first battle was the first women’s bout to headline at Madison Square Garden in April 2022, and they ran it back this past November in the co-main event of the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson card, delivering another thrilling affair, and was watched by an average of 74 million viewers on Netflix.
Additional bouts for the card will be announced at a later date.
