Walkouts: Man, this arena is LIT. Place is rocking for the national anthems. And they don’t quiet down at all for the walkouts. I can only imagine what it’s like in there because that place seems insane right now.
Serrano is out first. Place goes crazy. Natti Natasha sings her out and the Knicks City Dancers accompany her. Pulling out all the stops for this thing.
Taylor out last, as the champion. No musical accompaniment for her, nor dance troupe. Just Taylor in her black and gold robe as she makes her way to the ring, entourage behind her. It’s almost time.
I cannot stress how insane this atmosphere is. This is as loud as I’ve heard an arena in years. The place is ready to go OFF. Let’s have fun.
Round 1: Serrano in white and red, Taylor in black and gold. Taylor in orthodox, Serrano in southpaw as they meet in the center and test the range with jabs. Very cautious start from both women, something different from the first two fights. Probing jabs, no commitment. The place continues to roar. 30 seconds left and I don’t think a punch has landed. Taylor holding the center as Serrano circles. I don’t think either woman landed an actual punch in the whole round.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-10.
Round 2: Only 3 punches landed in the first round per the stats. Sounds right. This round, Serrano comes out a little more urgent, taking space. She lands a left hand. Serrano definitely the one coming forward but neither woman committing yet. Both putting jabs out there but no connections. Looping left for Serrano lands behind a jab that came short. Taylor with a check hook over a jab. Serrano cutting the ring well now but Taylor fires a decent right hand.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Serrano, 20-19 Serrano overall.
