The DAZN platform reported that on Saturday the fight Kathy Taylor (21-0, 6 KOs) vs. Amanda Serrano (42-2-1, 30 KOs) was watched by 1.5 million viewers. The duel was the main fight of the evening, held at Madison Square Garden in New York.

A short video with quotes from Bob Arum was posted on DAZN's official social media. The head of the Top Rank group is not an enthusiast of women's professional boxing and claimed that even big fights of the best female boxers in the world would not generate much interest.

The bout ended with Taylor winning a split decision, which helped her to defend her IBF, WBA, WBO and WBC lightweight titles. Over 19,000 fans watched the live boxing evening at Madison Square Garden. It is possible that their rematch will take place this year, which can take place at the 80,000-seat Croke Park stadium in Dublin, Ireland.
