Katie Taylor hits out at Jake Paul over "nonsense" demand for Amanda Serrano rematch

Katie Taylor was unimpressed with Jake Paul's "nonsense" suggestion that her rematch with Amanda Serrano should take place at featherweight.

Serrano and Taylor fought to a split decision for the undisputed lightweight titles at Madison Square Garden back in April in what was billed as the biggest women's fight in history. Paul co-promoted the bout for Serrano alongside Eddie Hearn, who has dealt with Taylor since her highly-anticipated move from the amateurs in 2016.

And after initially seeming cordial, the relationship between the two sides soured throughout fight week, with even the soft-spoken Taylor engaging in some of the trash talk. And it seems to have stayed aggressive, with talks over a potential rematch at the 83,000-capacity Croke Park in Dublin stalling and Paul now suggesting that Taylor should move down to Serrano's weight.
