    No need for a third match, everybody who can score a fight knows Persoon is 2-0. Matchroom have taken blatant corruption to a level I never thought possible.

    Far be it from me to be the contrarian on this board, but missed punches do not equal rounds won.

    Katie actually has some boxing slickness

    Peerson is just...jesus christ.

    Katie using her head when Peerson was jumping into her early and breaking her nose was perfecto tactics.

    I had Katie by a round. She got outworked in all the rounds she lost. The rounds people seemed to give to Peerson must have been scoring all the garbage punches she threw or barley landed and ignored the defence from Taylor.

    I'd like to say make it a 12 round fight but them later rounds just turn into Peerson edging them on ability to flap her arms around more times while Katie is blown.

    Katie winning round 11 clearly allowed her to win the fight for me.

    Persoon won both fights, and not by 96-94, either. More like 98-92

    Being nice and flashy doesn't win you the rounds but people seem to think it does... look at Canelo vs GGG.
    Taylor might have landed the flashier punches but Persoon probably outlanded her 2.5:1.
    No doubt it was one of the biggest robberies we've seen for a while

    Thought Persoon won the first fight in a very exciting fight, thought Taylor had the cleaner more effective work in the second fight (I didn't score it live and have not rewatched). Seems like Persoon just never got into her rhythm and never really landed anything of consequence like in the first bout. Was rooting for Persoon and kept waiting for the fight to catch fire and it just never happened.

    I had it dead even, a draw. Katie is prettier to watch --in all regards-- but Persoon keeps coming like Frankenstein.

    I haven't watched it, but this is bollox. Clean effective aggression counts more than shoe shining. One head snapping jab is better than 2.5 glancing hooks.

    This was the first women's fight I have watched for a long time. It was horrendous.
    Persoon has zero boxing skills she is just tough with a good motor. Taylor is obviously a better boxer has some skills but no power she just didn't have enough physical strength to keep Persoon off of her. I didn't score it I find it hard to judge Persoon's messy work.

    There was no effective aggression, there was no aggression at all, Taylor threw occasional punches after being swarmed by Persoon for 10 rounds,
    You're right though but the difference is out of the 2.5 about half of them were glancing blows and the other half were clean punches

    Persoon was dictating where the fight took place, I kept being distracted when watching the fight but I did see Persoon landing far more

    Persoon was completely ineffective with her aggression she looked like the female Jeff Horn. I'm astonished that the majority here thinks she won either fight

    Persoon was robbed in the first fight.

    This one, I had roughly even, wouldn't mind a decision either way but no robbery.

    Persoon won both. Still, both fights were relatively close imo.
    Like I said so many times, nationality and a name promoter is often more important as skill.

    I have no desire to see a third fight between these two.

    Persoon is dreadful to watch. All she has going for her is work rate and an ability to throw over 60 punches per round every round like a robot. Her relentlessness is the only thing that gave Taylor problems. Her skills are non-existant.

    Taylor actually does have some boxing skills unlike 99.9% of the female boxers I have seen, so credit for that. The issue is that this is such a rarity that you will never see her in a decent fight, because who else has her boxing skill in womens boxing. I am yet to see anyone.

    It was a horrendous fight as midnightprowler says. If that truly is the elite, and the best womens boxing has. Then I havent missed anything by turning away from all the previous fights.
