Two significant boxing matches occurred in New York City last weekend, marking a milestone with women headlining a major event. Amanda Serrano lost to Katie Taylor by a majority decision, making it her third defeat to Taylor, who retained her title with the scores 97-93, 95-95, 97-93. In a strategic approach, Serrano aimed to outbox Taylor, while Taylor expressed satisfaction with her performance. Meanwhile, at Louis Armstrong Stadium, Hamzah Sheeraz defeated Edgar Berlanga, stopping the fight in the fifth round with three knockdowns.
I thought I showed a very smart performance, a very clever performance. This performance I knew I was capable of against Amanda.
We tried something different. It was all about working smarter, not harder. I tried to keep my distance and tried not to go in there and fight with her.
Hamzah Sheeraz moved up to super-middleweight and dominated Brooklyn's Edgar Berlanga, dropping the 28-year-old Puerto Rican pugilist three times.
Taylor retained her super-lightweight title with a score of 97-93, 95-95, 97-93 in front of a soldout crowd of 19,721.
