Katie Taylor beats Amanda Serrano on split decision after all-time classic in New York

Katie Taylor has beaten Amanda Serrano on a split decision after an all-time classic fight in Madison Square Garden.

An incredible 10 rounds saw Katie take a lot of punishment from the powerful Puerto Rican.

But after surviving the onslaught, Katie's late round surges earned her the nod on the scorecards.

Guido Cavaleri went 96-93 Taylor, Glenn Feldman: 97-93 Taylor and Benoit Roussel: 96-94 Serrano.

In the post-match interviews, promoters Eddie Hearn and Jake Paul confirmed that they would both be happy to have a rematch between the pair in Croke Park later this year.

It was something that both fighters wanted too, with Katie offering the Puerto Rican powerhouse a rematch while they were still in the ring.
