  • Had to be a significant injury to postpone a fight three months out. That’s the biggest money fight, so I’m sure they’ll get it back together; I am wondering though if Taylor takes a fight before that now.

    • There is another big fight I think being scheduled for that day. I just cannot remember who at the moment.

        • LOL! Good point…maybe it will either come to me or I will hear of it again. I just remember hearing that they were proposing a fight for May 20 and it surprised me because of Taylor Serrano. Perhaps old age is settling in! LOL!

      • I recall reading about a possible date of May 20 for Haney vs Loma
        Was that the one you might be thinking about

        • I think it may have been Haney – Lomo. They spoke with Haney at the Paul-Fury fight and he may have said something. I am normally sharper on these things but I admit I slept through the undercard. Luckily I woke up for the Jack – Makabu as that was the one I wanted to see. Yes Cameron is coming off that big victory over McCaskill and Baumgardner has a big following, a big punch, and a big personality. She may have to tone down the trash talking in Ireland! Lol!

    • Hit the nail on the head again, Lucie. I was thinking the same thing – 3 months out must be something bad.

  • OH NO!!! I’m shattered!! I was so looking forward to women’s boxing. Damn… now what am I going to do that day?? Oh I know, I’ll go grocery shopping! That’s more exciting than women’s boxing.

  • In my mind I think it was more about Serrano being in a grueling fight last time out! I remember watching the fight and thinking, damn she’s gonna fight Taylor in 3 months?? And before anyone comments, just ask a fighter who has put there body through a grueling camp and subsequent fight only to be ready for an immediate camp and fight!!

    • That could be the case BoriMex but I think if it were that they could simply have said “Due to needing more preparation/recovery time we’re postponing the fight”. This literally says that she has an injury which is delaying a fight like 14-15 weeks out.
