She has a record of 42-2-1 and has fought many really good girls before like Yamileth Mercado, Daniela Romina Bermudez, Dahianna Santana, Heather Hardy, and the list goes on. They both did really good in the fight and the fight was taken to decision after 10 tough rouds of straight up throwing hands by both fighters, and sadly for Serrano the judges decided that Taylor won the fight. 

 

Many really important people were in the fights like Jake Paul, Javon Wavon, Ryan Garcia, Claressa Shields and the Grandslam Champion Cris Cyborg who was there to support the fighters. Make sure to stay tuned for next weekend May 7th since Canelo is going to be fighting Bivol in Las Vegas.
