    Seeing a lot of negative comments about Katie and i find that disappointing. Ok i get it she is not everybodys cup of tea as she has had the benefit of a few close decisions.Hovever what no one can deny is her ferocious will to win and her incredible bravery. She has been involved in some of the greatest womans fights ever, and love her or hate her she deserves the utmost respect

    Absolutely, she can retire in peace as a legend and a very wealthy woman.

    That was a good fight. Didn’t agree with the decision but she puts on good fights.

    Katie Taylor is the Canelo of women's boxing.

    People are just being tools and doing the typical hive mentality outrage thing, it’s made worse by the amount of non boxing fans and casuals who watched this one.

    It was a close fight, I had no dog in the fight, but I wanted her to win after the bad head butt call and seeing the outrageous “unofficial score” heavily favoring Serrano.

    For Serrano’s physicality, I’m very surprised at her inability to fight on the inside, where 95% of her punches turn into slaps and she just keeps her head right in the center…. No wonder Katie’s surprisingly bad habit of falling forward when she lets her hands go results in their heads colliding….

    Nah, Canelo is a clean fighter (not talking about what he puts in his body).

    Enough is enough. It's time to retire. No stamina and dependent on favourable judging. Bow out gracefully but it might be too late now.

    Tell that to the thousands who saw both fights with Serrano.They were fantastic and to say otherwise is sheer pig headedness

    The robbery talk is absolute nonsense and the commentators should be ashamed totally biased/unprofessional and I think they influenced all the hate Taylor is getting now.

    I had the exact same score as the judges 95-94 I see absolute nothing wrong with the scoring at all and I was baffled with all the hate I was seeing on this forum and social media.

    Serrano is GWOAT after last night, not Taylor. Imagine moving up from 126 to that to the unified champ.
