Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, ranked No. 2 and No. 3 respectively in women's boxing, are set to headline an all-women's boxing card at Madison Square Garden. The event, which will be streamed on Netflix, serves to promote women's boxing as a mainstream sport and advocate for equal exposure and pay with men's boxing. Jake Paul states that the aim of the card is to showcase the entertainment value of women's boxing and create more superstars within the sport, expanding its audience beyond traditional boxing fans.
"The goal for this all-women's card is to put the world on notice that women's boxing is just as entertaining as men's and can be just as exciting, if not more," Jake Paul, whose company Most Valuable Promotions is presenting Friday's event, told ESPN.
"This is the moment where multiple women on the card can garner a bigger audience and become superstars. They have the opportunity to be recognized by audiences outside of the normal boxing crowd and expand the fan base, just like Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese did for the WNBA."
