Amanda Serrano suffered a gnarly in the fourth round of her bout vs. Katie Taylor, which served as the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson co-main event.
In front of more than 70,000 fans at AT&T Stadium on Friday in Arlington, Texas, Serrano battled the elements, including one over her right eye. The cut was gnarly and examined by the ringside doctor on multiple occasions. In the sixth round, a clash of heads occurred that made the cut even worse. The doctor was called in but deemed Serrano able to continue.
Between Rounds 6 and 7, Serrano’s corner voiced displeasure with the clash, calling it a “headbutt.” However, the action continued on, and the fight reached its conclusion but not without Taylor being docked a point.
Still, Taylor won a unanimous decision by scores of 95-94 from all three judges.
