It was the closest of fights but Irish boxing legend Katie Taylor narrowly defeated Amanda Serrano for a third time to etch herself into history as the greatest female fighter of all time.

I just know I can’t fight Amanda Serrano again, she punches too hard,” Taylor said after as the women shared a laugh and a handshake.

Katie Taylor remembers the minutes before her first fight with Amanda Serrano, when she left her locker room at Madison Square Garden to find a screaming, sold-out crowd that was larger and louder than anything she imagined.
