ARLINGTON, Texas — Katie Taylor survived another onslaught by Amanda Serrano on Friday night.
The tough Irishwoman withstood several tenuous sequences, as well as a point deduction for leading with her head, countered sharply and edged Serrano by one point on all three scorecards to win their 10-round rematch on the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul undercard at AT&T Stadium. Serrano bravely, ferociously fought through a grotesque cut over her right eye for six-plus rounds and seemed stunned when it was announced that the seven-division champion from Brooklyn lost 95-94 on the cards of judges Jeremy Hayes, Nate Palmer and Jesse Reyes.
