Fans Say Taylor vs Serrano Deserved Main Event Over Paul vs Tyson

Following Jake Paul’s win over Mike Tyson, viewers claimed the true highlight was Katie Taylor’s fight with Amanda Serrano. Held at AT&T Stadium and watched globally on Netflix, the event saw Tyson, 58, lose to Paul, 27, in a lackluster match. Taylor defended her light-welterweight title in an exciting, bloody rematch, winning narrowly by 95-94.

Fans expressed frustration on social media, arguing Taylor and Serrano should have been the main event. One post read, “Let’s be real, that Taylor/Serrano fight was the real main event tonight.” Another added, “The main event should’ve been Katie Taylor and Serrano. Not Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson.” Despite Netflix’s co-main event billing, the star power of Tyson and Paul took precedence.

Serrano, disappointed but proud, said, “I chose to fight. I went up three divisions… I am the featherweight champion… I fight to the very end.” Taylor called it “an absolute war,” and celebrated her victory: “This is an amazing moment for women’s boxing.”

Fans hope to see a third fight between Taylor and Serrano, highlighting their impact on the sport.
