Serrano vs Mercado: an all-in in the shadow of Jake Paul

The youtuber Jake paul come back to the load. This Sunday, the 24-year-old American disputes his fourth fight as a professional boxer (all wins by KO). Another YouTuber, an exNBA, and an exUFC have been his previous opponents. Now he’s going against another MMA fighter. In this case it is Tyron Woodley, who has been a champion in the UFC and is active, although he has the worst streak of his career (four losses). Paul is smart and raising the bar, but he knows that Woodley’s strong point is not boxing. Despite everything, the fight again arouses great expectations in the United States. Showtime will offer it on PPV. Little more to add. The exUFC will take a lot of money and everyone is happy.

Boxers who fight earlier are also happy. For many it will be their biggest payday and they will have a great focus, although no matter how well they do it, they will end up overshadowed by the phenomenon Jake Paul. In spite of everything, it compensates them. The positive points are many. Daniel Dubois will debut in the United States. So will Tommy Fury and will also fight former world champion Ivan Baranchyk. Despite those great names, there is one fight that stands out above all: Amanda Serrano (40-1-1, 30 KO). The 32-year-old Puerto Rican is one of the best pound for pound of the moment and is also in that classification, but historical. World champion in seven divisions. Little more can be added.

Serrano expected a fight against Katie Taylor, but the pandemic prevented it And after two filming lawsuits (the second, in March 2021, with his titles at stake) he makes a risky bet. He knows that everything is stopped and must take a step forward. It has done. This Sunday he will expose his WBC and WBO featherweight worlds against Yamileth Mercado (18-2, 5 KO). The 23-year-old Mexican “accepted without hesitation.” “When I told him the rival and the card, he said yes. Nor did he ask me when I was going to charge“, recognizes in the podcast ‘Boxeo a la Carrera ‘his manager, Rafa Soto. The sunset of the Chihuahua is also high. He’s a rising star, WBC super bantamweight monarch … but he doesn’t mind going up against one of the best and gaining weight. The prize is very big. There will be many spotlights that can give you visibility. The same thinks Serrano, who has taken advantage of the preparation to train with Jake Paul. They both win. In betting, the Puerto Rican is a favorite. By legacy it should be like that, but Mercado always promises rhythm and war. Puerto Rico vs Mexico fights never disappoint and both Amanda and Yamileth know it. They want to shine, even if it’s in the shadow of Jake Paul.
