Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano’s boxing rivalry is set to escalate with their highly anticipated trilogy fight on July 11. This match marks a significant moment in sports history as it headlines the first all-women’s boxing card at Madison Square Garden, with the event available for streaming on Netflix.
Katie Taylor, a 39-year-old Irish boxer and two-time Olympic champion, currently has a record of 2-0 against Serrano, showcasing her skill and determination in the ring. The upcoming match is part of the Countdown: Taylor vs. Serrano documentary that highlights the rigorous training and commitment both athletes have dedicated to this historic bout.
While the focus is primarily on the fierce competition, fans are also curious about Taylor’s personal life. Despite her success in boxing, Taylor maintains a very private lifestyle. Currently, she is not in a relationship and has never been married. In her documentary, Taylor revealed that her commitment to her sport often overshadows her personal life, stating, “Sometimes I think I’m a bit too single-minded where I only think about the next flight.”
Historically, Taylor has refrained from publicizing any past romantic relationships. In 2019, she expressed to The Irish Mirror that her training in America left little room for dating, saying, “I really genuinely haven’t got the time… but who knows what could happen in the future.” Furthermore, in 2022, she addressed the constant inquiries about her dating life, noting it was frustrating yet understandable, though she felt male boxers were rarely subjected to the same scrutiny.
As the boxing world gears up for the showdown between Taylor and Serrano, one can only hope that, regardless of the outcome in the ring, Taylor may one day find the balance to explore more of what life outside boxing has to offer. Fans continue to support and admire her dedication, both as an athlete and a person.
