Amanda Serrano Injured! Taylor Rematch Postponed

The highly anticipated rematch between Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor has been postponed due to an undisclosed injury suffered by Serrano. The two were scheduled to fight on May 20 at 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland. Matchroom Boxing and Most Valuable Promotions released a statement expressing regret that the fight could not go ahead as planned.

"The teams are in discussions about finding a revised date for the bout. Further details will follow in due course," the statement read. No additional information about the injury was provided. Serrano's team did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

It remains to be seen if Taylor, who was set to defend her lightweight title for the fifteenth time, will seek a replacement opponent or move the date of the fight altogether. The rematch with Serrano would have marked Taylor's first professional fight in Ireland, where she is a beloved figure.

The original fight between Taylor and Serrano was one of the best of the past year, with Taylor narrowly edging out Serrano in a closely contested bout. Fans were eagerly anticipating the rematch, which was expected to be another thrilling fight between two of the best fighters in women's boxing. While the delay is undoubtedly disappointing, fans will be hoping that the two fighters will be able to reschedule the fight soon and that Serrano will make a full recovery from her injury.
