**Jake Paul Secures Win Over Mike Tyson in Unanimous Decision, While Taylor and Serrano Steal the Show**

In a spectacle that captured global attention, Jake Paul managed to outlast the legendary Mike Tyson in a unanimous decision. However, the true highlight of the event was the thrilling bout between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, which showcased top-tier boxing.

At 27, Paul leveraged his youth and athleticism to fend off a 58-year-old Tyson, who has not been in his prime for decades. Despite Paul's limited boxing skills, he managed to keep Tyson at a distance throughout the match, which many traditionalists criticized as a dull affair. Unimpressed boxing purists felt vindicated as Paul's high-priced attire, reportedly worth over $1 million and adorned with nearly 400 diamonds, failed to brighten the action in the ring.

Paul's claims that 120 million viewers tuned in via Netflix for its first live boxing event didn't alter the perception that the main fight was a poor reflection of the sport. Before the lackluster showdown in Texas, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano set a high bar in their chief support fight with a thrilling display of boxing prowess.

In what was a rematch of their 2022 clash, Irishwoman Taylor narrowly defeated Puerto Rican Serrano once again. The fight's intensity and skill level starkly contrasted the main event, with a bloodied Serrano fighting valiantly through a ghastly cut and Taylor remarkably standing her ground. This match was met with split opinions over the scorecard, but both fighters were praised for their performance.

"We witnessed one of the greatest female fights of all time," said Eddie Hearn, Taylor's promoter. With a crowd of 70,000 and countless others trying to watch on Netflix—which struggled under the viewership load—Taylor versus Serrano brought a level of excellence that resonated throughout the AT&T Stadium.

Serrano started off strong, landing relentless punches that rocked Taylor early on. However, Taylor's resilience helped her fight back in the latter half of the bout. "It was very different from the first fight," Taylor remarked. "I started a bit slow and changed it up in the second half. I definitely landed the bigger punches; I feel that's what won me the fight."

Despite suffering a severe cut above her eye, seven-weight world champion Serrano felt she deserved the win and expressed interest in a trilogy fight—a sentiment echoed by the boxing community.

While Taylor and Serrano's epic fight represented the pinnacle of the sport, the event concluded with the less impressive Paul vs. Tyson bout. Tyson skipped the post-fight news conference, and praise for his dedication offered little solace to those who invested time and money into the event.

Jake Paul's post-fight comments that he carried 'Iron Mike' during the final rounds, claiming he aimed to entertain without injuring Tyson, did little to counter the critics. Even as the sport is bolstered by investments and significant matches, events like Tyson vs. Paul cast a shadow over 'proper' boxing.
