Katie Taylor will make her first walk to the ring in almost a year for her rematch with Amanda Serrano.

The fight has been two-and-a-half years in the making following the Bray Bomber's split decision win over the Puerto Rican at Madison Square Garden in April 2022.

Both fighters have weighed in at 137.4lbs for the co-main event to Mike Tyson v Jake Paul at the Dallas Cowboys' AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The ring walks are expected to commence around 3am Irish time on Saturday.

Taylor makes the first defence of the super-lightweight world titles she won off Chantelle Cameron last November against Serrano on Friday, with the bout being fought at a 138lbs catchweight.

Another all out war is expected between two of the all-time female pound-for-pound greats.

"The first fight with Amanda was obviously epic, I know the second fight is going to be even more epic so I can't wait," said Taylor this week. "There's not going to be a lot of feeling out in the second fight, we know each other so well now we spent ten rounds together so we're just going to go straight into an all out war again on Friday night.

"The last time it was fight of the year and this time I can't expect anything less."

Serrano added: "I hope it's going to be a fight. Katie's a warrior. She might start off boxing but once I hit her, I know she's going to come to fight. That's who Katie is. It's going to be a war. The fans are going to be the winners come Friday night."
