Hopefully Katie wins more decisively this time. Persoon showed incredible fitness and toughness last time. Some people who don't understand boxing apparently even thought she won! Can you believe that?
Persoon definitely deserves the rematch hasn’t Taylor got to beat someone else good first or is that not going ahead?
Katie Taylor got battered by a full time police officer and part-time boxer, only for the trademark Matchroom FC brown envelopes to be out in full force, Fast Eddie limited USA edition, apparently. Eddie Hearn will have even more sway, considering that it's in his back garden and following recent events stakeholders and partners will be licking his nutsack for putting it on.
Really pleased about the rematch, be interesting to see if the first was just an off night for Taylor. I expect her to be back to her best and hope it’s a Decisive finish for her
On a serious note, I hope persoon has had sufficient time to prepare in the wings. Its not a long way away until 22 August and she works full-time as well. I reckon Taylor will box more this time round, or attempt to conserve more energy. For what it's worth, I think she's on the decline now in her career going off Persoon and her last fight, won't be long before a younger fighter who has some skills will best her imo. That or going up in weight too much.
Fantastic. Katie can't lose you reckon?. Either way it's win-win for Katie?. Love it. What's not to like? Happy days... ☺️
Serrano pulled out revealing she was allegedly asked to take a 50% purse cut due to the effects of COVID-19
Which was disproven by both her manager and her promoter. Hearn asked if they would go for a paycut, Dibella said no. She was then offered her full purse and Taylor took a paycut.
Serrano chickened out. Persoon won't chicken out. That is the difference. Taylor and Persoon are great warriors.
Even "Kaaayteeees" biggest fan, her protector sniffing, weirdo, ringside stalker Adam Smith had Persoon winning the first fight. It reminded me of that Simpsons clip "if you slow it down, you can see the exact moment his heart breaks" Smiths voice was breaking, I thought he was going to cry at one point. How anybody can tell me Taylor won that fight is beyond me, I thought she might get stopped in the last couple of rounds. Persoon knows what she has to do, make it a dog fight, make it a fast pace and let her hands go. Her style caused Taylor huge problem before and I believe it will again. I don't see a Persoon getting a decision in Eddies back yard, so she needs to try and get the stoppage.
