We should probably start a thread on this fight/event.
Anybody going?
You said Katie is a puncher..you said it’s curtains for Serrano if Katie and get fight at 147. Nobody is making this up. You said it.
size absolutely can be a factor. We all know this. Your inability to see what makes Katie a great fighter is the issue. And it has very very little to do with her size, physical presence, strength or power.
All you’re promoting here is a slower and more laboured 37 year old Taylor. Really silly.
Katie weighing 147 v Serrano at 135 I’d make Serrano a favorite. Serrano wouldn’t even need to be 147
Any thoughts on the knockdown? Looks like a good knock down to me on replay
Was possibly a knockdown, but I can understand the referee in the moment ruling it out. There was a “stamp” on Katie’s left foot as the punch landed
I had it 120-107 to Chantelle.
Taylor did nothing; holding on like a deer in the headlights and flailing like a windmill.
An MMA fighter would have put her to sleep.
Back to school math for you, so
You're making things. You're reading into things that are simply not there. Difference between being a puncher and a ko artist.
There's no arguing against the fact that if a fighter has been at a weight longer they have more experience at that weight level, have spent more time at the weight and know their body at that weight, it's an advantage. A fighter going up two weights is at a disadvantage regardless of what weight they choose to be at. Particularly if there's a lot of holding.
Katie had six more months at the weight and it showed. She didn't have that time first time around.
I know you're fixated on punching but I never mentioned that in relation to the weight advantage.
Everything is in your head.
What I said was:
Facts. Katie was in unreal shape last night. A 37 year old woman with a 6 pack. Had obviously trained hard to take the body shots against a heavier woman and it worked. She was like cut class.
Serrano's power has faded a bit. She's very dangerous but she likes featherweight. I think, if Katie demanded a welterweight bout against Serrano, it would be curtains for Serrano. I think the likes of Persson gives Serrano a nightmare.
Cahill doing his best on Sunday Sport to get ‘de trilogy’ underway.
We will be listening to this stuff from RTE for the next year as the liggerati of Monterosia scramble to get their arses on the ‘ access all areas seats, for free, of course.
It looks like they're feet came together as they both stepped back from being on the inside. There was no stomp. Ref was in a good position. Cameron landed on the chest area - that wouldn't knock someone really.
You said Katie’s a puncher. You said it. Not me. You brought in power here. That is laughable.
btw, what 6 pack were you seeing? I saw a slim midriff is all.
you again saying Katie at 147 lbs v Serrano means Serrano is done for, is plain silly.
so, I’ll give you a shot: how exactly does a 37/38 year old 147 lbs Taylor make it “curtains” for Serrano? What happens in the fight?
she went life and death with Serrano at 135, but at 147 it’s curtains for Serrano..😖
😂😂😂 Sorry, not playing this game. There's no point. You're making no sense. You've over 50,000 posts 🤣. I can see why. I've a life to live. Good luck.
There is a very good replay on Istagram. Clear step in, stomp on Katie’s left foot as punch lands. Looks unintentional. Referee got it right
Ok. So you clearly have no clue. As I said, you just didn’t think it through when saying a 37/38 year old Taylor makes it curtains for Serrano at 147 lbs..live your life, so!
There's no way Cameron won rounds 11 and 12, literally no way, if you think so you were watching a different fight.
Yes, watching some mythical 12 rds fight..
You've never heard of the 12 points must system?
A cynic would suggest the whole thing was set up for the big pay day (for everyone including the protagonists and the promoter)
Be more an idiot to think this, albeit the trilogy makes perfect boxing and financial sense. Cameron deserved winner fight 1 and Katie deserved winner fight 2.
You can see here. They both step in, punch lands on Katie's chest area, they're feet touch as they step back out and Katie loses balance. No stomp or step on anything

I don't anybody has ever heard of a '12' point must in boxing. 😁
Then how else did cameron score 120 points over 10 rounds? You saying you know more than someone who registered this morning to try and troll but got basic facts wrong?
You scored a 10 round fight at that? Clearly you are a boxing genius and we must all bow to your knowledge.
UUhmm…….serious plugging from Hearn straight after the fight for the Croker trilogy, involving the Govt. in the event!
Lets hope we don’t have this being plugged by the vested interests for the next 6 months.
If Hearn has the nuts to promote the event himself, fair play to him, but don’t expect JQT to line his pockets.
Go over to the Lahndhan Stadium and get on to Rishi and see how far you get.
Lets not be bushwhacked here by these coves..
I don't see how Taylor won a round.
I nodded off after round 2 but fast-forwarded through the fight at 6 times speed.
Looked to me like Chantelle out-struck Taylor and got the only knockdown.
We all knew if a Taylor win the trilogy would surface. She won. And there was no shenanigans for why she won.
Not seeing how Taylor won a round? Yet you scored the 10 round fight as a 12, after watching the parts you missed due to "nodding off"?
I remember when trolls used to be fun
Evolving Tipperary clearly thinks the two Taylor /Cameron fights were at 147….. I think someone should tell him they were at 140.
You do realize the poster was buzzing? are you aware that a 10 rds pro boxing match has a max score of 100 points on offer to a boxer?
How did you read my post as anything other than sarcasm?
It's 10 points max. I know more than you 😁 and here's the scorecards.
There a few of us here who are boxing fans, we don't just turn up for big fights, We watch probably over 200 fights per year. You can look.through all the threads in the boxing forum and we will have plenty of posts in each one.
So we know the basics pretty well.
Katie Taylor has never fought at 147….last nights fight was at 140.
