How was that for an encore from Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano? And also, how about some more controversy?Just like their first fight, Taylor and Serrano delivered another instant classic Friday night at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, where Taylor outlasted Serrano to remain the undisputed super lightweight champion. After 10 epic rounds, all three judges scored the fight 95-94 for Taylor, despite Taylor having a point deducted by referee Jon Schorle.So after 2 epic fights, 20 titanic rounds boxing fans would hope, EXPECT sporting behaviour, right? As is customary in this great sport - hugs, compliments and beef settled - the better man/woman wins - you congratulate them. Not in this case, whinging, moaning and cries of cheat came from Serrano's coach [brother in law] Jordan Maldonado and indeed Serrano herself. Backstage Katie and her team were being railroaded into a media ambush - until manager Brian Peters stepped in.All in all - an exhausting but exhilarating night of boxing that left Irish boxing fans "Walkin in a Katie Wonderland". Ian and Al are joined on this episode by renowned Irish cut man Tommy McCormack to discuss the fight and all that ensued - we have highlights of the fight itself and a word from the GWOAT Clarissa Shields. in Association with🎩 VIOLENT GENTLEMAN:.com/SB Sports: SB SportsS O C I A L M E D I A🕊 Twitter: @EnswellPodcast📸 Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/ycbmz5vy👤 facebook: https://tinyurl.com/y7b9q8jk📹 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/yn9jrfvu#irishboxing #boxingnews #tysonpaul #taylorserrano2 #GWOAT #ClarissaShields #KatieTaylor

There is no better way to describe Katie Taylor than in the words of Irish legend and former WBC world champion Christina McMahon "Katie Taylor - she just NEVER lets us down”As we prepare for the second wave of a war for the ages Ian & Al look towards what could be another classic boxing match that already sits alongside the classics.

This one is very much an impromptu episode following the announcement by Ohara Davies last night. As I watched him call time on his boxing career I recalled the Golden Contract final preview episode Enswell Boxing did with him back in 2020. On that occasion he faced Tyrone McKenna in the final and ultimately won. But the build up had been hot, both fellas never held back and after being hung out to dry by media at an earlier stage of his career - OD could be awkward if he thought he needed to be. we needn’t have worried - he was brilliant. To be honest, love him or not - OD has always been brilliant. Always been himsel, the guy with the Irish name…..

Having had a few weeks of what you could call a boxing break - the Irish boxing scene exploded into life with a return of a show that would remind fans of those heady Bernard Dunne nights. On this occasion it was ‘King’ Callum Walsh on a truly unique UFC production that lived up to all the hopes & expectations.ian and Al look back over the card that also featured Shauna O’Keefe, Edward Donovan v Craig O’Brien, Emmet Brennan v Kevin Cronin and more.in Association with🎩 VIOLENT GENTLEMAN:.com/ SB Sports: SB SportsS O C I A L M E D I A🕊 Twitter: @EnswellPodcast📸 Instagram: https://tinyurl.com/ycbmz5vy👤 facebook: https://tinyurl.com/y7b9q8jk📹 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/yn9jrfvu#irishboxing #boxingnews #KingCallumWalsh #UFC #3arena #Irish
