i really like the men fights on here as they are on the level or a step up
hitchins vs bauza is a damn good fight for a prospect as is mati vs cletus the roid taking jew seldin...its fukk seldin since he caused zab's brain bleed and hbo was really trying to make him a thing in their final year before he got outclassed badly on the undercard of saunders-lemieux..so any chance of seldin getting his ass whooped is always appreciated

I actually think Baumgardner can ko Serrano. I've followed Seranno for many years, but she's getting older and she doesn't mind taking punches to get 3 or 4 of hers off. You can't do that with a fighter like Baumgardner at 130 if she decides to move up and face her. I don't think her fight with Taylor was really a robbery. It could have went either way, but Serrano kept following taylor around and eating punches while allowing Taylor to clinch in the later rounds. She had Taylor out of there and let her off the hook the rest of the fight. I love Ramla Ali too. She's getting a title fight EARLY in her career as well.

Seems like Serrano used to be a more defensive fighter..now she all offense non stop moving forward + I think she be sparring men, that’s hella wear & tear
Amanda Serrano-Erika Cruz, Undercard Weigh-In Results From Madison Square Garden

Amanda Serrano has won world titles in seven divisions on her way to becoming one of the biggest stars in women’s boxing.
She is expected to fight undisputed champion Katie Taylor at the lightweight limit of 135 pounds for the second time May 20 in Dublin, but Serrano admits that she is most comfortable boxing as a featherweight. The 34-year-old Serrano showed yet again Friday that she can continue to make the 126-pound maximum for her division.
Brooklyn’s Serrano stepped on the New York State Athletic Commission’s scale at 125.4 pounds for her 10-round featherweight title unification fight against Erika Cruz on Saturday night. Mexico City’s Cruz came in at 125.4 pounds as well for a battle between southpaws that will headline DAZN’s stream from Madison Square Garden’s Hulu Theater in New York.
Serrano (43-2-1, 30 KOs) will defend her IBF, IBO, WBC and WBO featherweight crowns against Cruz (15-1, 3 KOs), whose WBA belt also will be on the line.
Caesars Sportsbook listed Serrano as an 8-1 favorite Friday to beat Cruz. The 32-year-old Cruz hasn’t lost since Mexico City’s Alondra Gonzalez (5-1, 0 KOs) edged her by majority decision in Cruz’s second professional fight, a four-rounder that took place in June 2016.
