This past weekend was highlighted by two big boxing cards in New York. On Friday, an all-women card that included six title fights with an unprecedented 17 titles on the line took place at Madison Square Garden under the Most Valuable Promotions banner.

In the main event, undisputed junior welterweight champion Katie Taylor defeated Amanda Serrano by majority decision to remain unbeaten in their fight trilogy. It was a brilliant performance by Taylor, who decided to slow down the pace to keep Serrano guessing and out of range.

Also on the card, Alycia Baumgardner retained her undisputed junior lightweight championship, but beat Jennifer Miranda in less impressive fashion. Shadasia Green scored an upset of Savannah Marshall that unified two super middleweight titles. Late replacement Cherneka Johnson took advantage of her opportunity and became undisputed bantamweight champion with a TKO win over Shurretta Metcalf.

On Saturday, at Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, The Ring III card saw lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson change his usual defensive approach to a more aggressive attack. He dominated previously unbeaten power puncher William Zepeda. Hamzah Sheeraz, making his super middleweight debut, knocked out Edgar Berlanga in the fifth round to get a step closer to a megafight for the undisputed championship. Subirel Matias went the distance for the first time in his career in a must-needed victory over Alberto Puello to claim the WBC junior welterweight title. Andreas Hale took in every fight on both New York cards and grades the performances of all the top fighters.
