Close rounds leave it up to the judges
Serrano echoes what she said after the second fight. She believes she won, but razor close rounds leave it up to the judges, and two judges gave it to the Bray native.
A historic trilogy from two legendary women, and Katie Taylor cemented her status as one of the best to do it, as Dont Stop Believing echoes around the Garden.

All-Irish world title fight confirmed for Windsor Park in Belfast

Limerick 's Paddy Donovan and Belfast's Lewis Crocker will fight for the IBF welterweight title in a bout being billed as the first all-Irish world title fight. The bout is set for September 13th in Windsor Park, Belfast . It will be a rematch of their fight in March, when Donovan was disqualified for flooring Crocker with a punch after the bell sounded in the eighth round. The winner will join Katie Taylor as the only other Irish world champion in professional boxing . In a social media post announcing the fight, Donovan said: 'I'm looking to repeat another stellar boxing performance, set the record straight and come home with a world title.' READ MORE Meanwhile, Crocker said he wanted to 'silence the doubters' who did not accept the outcome of their clash in March. In their first encounter, the 26-year-old Donovan (14-1, 11KOs) appeared to be winning more of the rounds and was gathering momentum over Crocker (21-0, 11KOs) as the fight wore on. However, the pair continually clashed heads, partly due to the orthodox-southpaw matchup. Donovan was docked two points by referee Marcus McDonnell for headbutting, with Crocker's face wearing most of the damage. With 20 second left in the eighth round, Donovan knocked down Crocker with a left uppercut, but he beat the count and the fight resumed. With the crowd at fever pitch, the bell rang for the end of the session, but Donovan appeared not to hear it and knocked his foe down with a right hook. The referee was standing a few paces away when the bell went and disqualified Donovan for the late hit. While the victorious Crocker received oxygen in his corner, Donovan was furious and broke down in tears across the ring. With the win, Crocker (28) became the mandatory challenger for the IBF welterweight title, which champion Jaron Ennis vacated in June, meaning the belt is up for grabs this time around. Donovan, nicknamed Real Deal, is coached by former world champion Andy Lee, who has proved to be an excellent trainer in guiding Joseph Parker back to the brink of a heavyweight world title fight. A win for the Limerick pair would make Donovan the first world champion coached by Lee, who trains world class fighters out of Ballybrack Boxing Club. Promoted by Eddie Hearn's Matchroom Boxing, the fight will be broadcast on streaming service DAZN.

Boxing great thinks Katie Taylor is one of the greatest female athletes ever

Carl Froch believes Katie Taylor is one of the greatest female athletes of all time. Taylor returned to the ring earlier this month and turned in one of the best performances of her career as she dominated Amanda Serrano and picked up a unanimous decision victory to end the trilogy 3-0 in Katie's favour. That win further cemented Taylor's legacy in the sport, but former World champion Froch believes Taylor now deserves to be in the conversation for greatest female athlete ever, and not just the G.O.A.T. of women's boxing. Speaking to Froch said: "Katie Taylor for me is probably one of the most outstanding female athletes, especially in boxing of all time. I mean, you've got a couple of other close names, but with Katie Taylor, she's just phenomenal." Taylor has now been fighting for over two decades having begun life as an amateur. She went on to become one of the greatest amateur boxers ever, with her crowning moment coming at the 2012 Olympics when she won gold. Since turning professional after the 2016 Rio Olympics, Taylor has revolutionised women's boxing and is a key reason why female fights garner just as much attention and respect as their male counterparts. Carl Froch in July 2025. (Image: (Photo by Dave Benett/WireImage)) Now 39-years-old, Taylor has achieved virtually everything in the sport, and Froch for one believes now is the perfect time to step away from the sport: I think now it's probably time to hang up the gloves, but you never know if there's big money waiting for another fight. You need to enjoy life and settle down and give your body a rest at some stage. And I think if you're not going to do that before your 40th birthday, when are you going to do it?' While rumours ran rampant suggesting that Taylor would retire after her third Serrano bout, no announcement has been forthcoming from the Bray Bomber. After the fight, Taylor did suggest that she had a decision to make on her fighting future: "I'm just going to enjoy this victory right now and sit back, reflect, and then I'll make a decision about that soon," she said before suggesting that a fight-night at Croke Park would motivate her to carry on. That seems unlikely, but a move up in weight in a bid to become a three-weight undisputed champion could tempt Taylor into wrapping her hands one more time. "I'm willing to come down to 140 for Katie Taylor or she can take her shot at another division and fight me for my 147lb title," wrote Undisputed 147 lbs champion Mikaela Mayer on X last week. "Either way, I always hoped we would cross paths and this may be our last chance if Katie is looking to retire soon. Still think she's got a lot left tho!"

Katie Taylor rival has name put forward for last fight

Former cruiserweight world champion Johnny Nelson has said he believes Katie Taylor has broken barriers in boxing and elevated the women's game to a whole new level. Speaking to Nelson reflected on Taylor's recent win and her overall impact on the sport: 'I was very surprised to see Katie Taylor beat Amanda Serrano. I thought we'd seen the best of her about three years ago, and the last fight between them was a tough, close encounter. 'I honestly didn't think she'd be able to pull it off, but Taylor was amazing. You have to respect where she is now and what she's achieved in her career.'

Johnny Nelson. (Image: Photo by) 'She's taken women's boxing to the next level. She's kicked the doors down again and made people respect female boxers as much as they've respected male greats throughout the years. 'She's a trailblazer in regard to setting a new standard and changing the view of women's boxing. You can only have the utmost respect for that.' Nelson believes Taylor's next fight will be a farewell bout against her old rival Natasha Jonas. Katie Taylor celebrates after defeating Natasha Jonas at the 2012 Olympics. (Image: Photo by) 'Her next fight will be a farewell bout against someone like Natasha Jonas,' said Nelson. 'She'll want to go out on a win against a British fighter to get the audiences in. She'll want to fight someone against whom she thinks she has a good chance, so don't be surprised if Natasha's name is thrown in the hat for her next and final fight.'
