Amanda Serrano Ties Knockout Record with Dominant Win

Amanda Serrano showcased her dominance in the ring with a second-round stoppage of Cheyenne Hanson at the El Paso County Coliseum, successfully defending her WBA and WBO featherweight titles. The referee halted the contest at 2:25 of round two, marking Serrano's 32nd knockout and tying her with boxing legend Christy Martin for the most KO wins in women's boxing history.

Now boasting a record of 49-4-1, Serrano expressed her ambition to break the knockout record in her next fight, stating, "I can break it in the next one. I can do the 50th and break it in the next one. Let’s go. That’s the goal." The seven-division champion credited the three-minute rounds for allowing her to better strategize against her opponent, saying, "This is my time. The three minutes give us more time to have fun in there, and that’s what I was doing, I was having fun."

The fight was part of a historic all-women's event, further highlighting the growing popularity of women's boxing. Serrano emphasized the importance of fan support, stating, "This is what we need for the sport to grow. Sell out arenas. Not just for me. I’m so happy that women can sell out, and we’re showing, proving day after day, fight after fight, that we can sell out. Fans want to see us." With her next victory, Serrano aims to not only secure her 50th win but also to stand alone at the top of the women's boxing knockout record.
