Eddie Hearn wiped blood off the face of Katie Taylor at the post-fight press conference as she was cut open in a terrific win over Amanda Serrano in Madison Square Garden in the early hours of Sunday morning. The Irish woman won on a split decision after outboxing her tough opponent in an extremely close battle.
But Taylor did face one onslaught as she was left bloodied after the Puerta Rican unloaded shots in the fifth round, with some shocked she survived to the bell. Katie rallied back and was able to finish out the fight in style, winning on two judges scorecards by three rounds.
Pictures from during and after the fight show the Bray boxer with some nasty marks on her face after the biggest night of her career so far, reports the Irish Mirror.
