Taylor holds off Serrano, retains crown in trilogy bout
Katie Taylor retained her undisputed super lightweight championship on Friday, completing a trilogy sweep against Amanda Serrano on a history-making night atop the first all-women's boxing card at Madison Square Garden on Friday. The two fighters brought women's boxing to new heights through their fierce rivalry, and their fight on Friday drew a sell-out crowd at the world's most famous arena watched the Irishwoman just edge out her opponent. The judges scored the fight 95-95, 97-93. 'What an amazing fighter,' Taylor said of her opponent after the bout. 'We're history makers forever.' The pride of Puerto Rico, Serrano came out to plenty of support from her adopted hometown, with the New York Knicks dancers lining the walkway as she entered the arena. Taylor, a 39-year-old Olympic gold medalist, walked to the ring expressionless, soaking in what many fans speculated could be her final professional fight. Katie Taylor acknowledges fans. AFP Both fighters took a cautious approach at the start, with only three punches connecting in the first round — a marked contrast to the eager attacks of their earlier meetings. The bout opened up in the third round, with Serrano unleashing a series of frantic blows, but she struggled to connect with the Irishwoman as the fight wore on. The pair hugged immediately after the 10th round, neither knowing the outcome. 'I needed a lot of help down the home stretch today,' said Taylor. 'I just have a ton of respect for Amanda. She's just — what a warrior.' Their first meeting at Madison Square Garden three years ago was billed as the biggest fight in women's boxing, as they were the first women to headline a fight at the arena. Taylor triumphed by judges' decisions in their prior two meetings as well, including a controversial clash in November, where the referee docked Taylor a point for head butts. Ireland's Katie Taylor (left) punches Puerto Rico's Amanda Serrano. AP Irish and Puerto Rico flags were all over the arena and fans began loudly singing and dancing during the co-main event, while Alycia Baumgardner (16-1) was beating Jennifer Miranda (12-1) to retain her undisputed 130-pound titles as a countdown clock began showing the time remaining until the Taylor-Serrano fight. There were 17 world titles from the four major sanctioning bodies on the line during the night in what 'Guinness World Records' said set the mark for most on a single fight card. Shadasia Green (15-1) edged Savannah Marshall (13-2), whose only previous loss was to Claressa Shields, by split decision to unify super middleweight titles and earn a $250,000 bonus for the performance of the night. In the final fight of the preliminary portion of the card, Australia's Cherneka Johnson (18-2, 8 KOs) pounded Shurretta Metcalf (14-5-1) until the fight was stopped in the ninth round to become the undisputed bantamweight champion. Ellie Scotney (11-0) added a third super bantamweight belt to the two she already held with a unanimous decision victory over Yamileth Mercado (24-4). Friday's fight on Netflix marked the streaming giant's latest foray into live sports, which experts say has driven subscriber growth after the debut of National Football League games late last year.

Over 12,000 musicians break Guinness World Record at expo
OSAKA—Musicians from around the country played 'The Stars and Stripes Forever' while marching on the Grand Ring and other areas of the Osaka Kansai Expo to break a world record. The 12,269 participants at the May 11 spectacle earned the Guinness World Records' title of 'largest marching band,' surpassing the previous record set in 1997 of 11,157 people. The event was held as part of the Brass Expo 2025, a brass band festival sponsored by Kansai Suisogaku Renmei (Kansai band federation), The Asahi Shimbun Co. and Ad:Daisen Co. 'I am overwhelmed by a sense of fulfillment,' said Rio Nakamura, leader of the brass band club at Matsuyama Shinonome Junior and Senior High School in Ehime Prefecture. Thirty-three people from the school, including alumni and guardians, took part. 'This is the first time I played with so many people,' Nakamura said. 'I was thrilled even after the performance ended.' In addition to sheer numbers, the group had to meet Guinness World Records requirements that included 'marching 400 meters or more with all participants playing' and 'performing for five minutes or longer.' Daisuke Ataka, 42, joined with about 40 other members of a brass band based in Suita, Osaka Prefecture. 'I became relaxed while playing, and I could afford to enjoy the sights of the expo that I was seeing for the first time,' said Ataka, an alto saxophonist. 'I was also glad to see children happily playing on percussion instruments.' Most of the assembled schools and amateur bands have participated in the All Japan Marching Contest.
