Equality Gain: Amanda Serrano To Fight 3 Minute Rounds

Most women who fight want to fight three minutes, same as the guys. The debate goes on whether that’s a good idea or not. Amanda Serrano is done debating, she will throw down in her next fight against Danila Ramos and the bout will be contested over 12 rounds, 3 minutes each.

NOT the traditional 2 minute session which the ladies engage in.

Here is material from a release sent out by Most Valuable Promotions (MVP).

Seven division boxing world champion and undisputed featherweight champion Amanda “The Real Deal” Serrano (45-2-1, 30 KOs) will face mandatory WBO featherweight challenger Danila “A Guerreira” Ramos (12-2, 1 KO) on Friday, October 27th at the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida.

Serrano vs. Ramos will be preceded by MVP’s third installment of its Most Valuable Prospects series, presented by Celsius Essential Energy Drinks.

Amanda Serrano vs. Ramos seeks to set a new standard for women’s boxing, one that hasn’t been seen since Layla McCarter vs. Melissa Hernandez in 2007. This marks over 15 years since the sport has garnered a women’s fight equal to the men’s maximum of 12 rounds at 3 minutes each.

Now, with the world watching, Amanda Serrano and Ramos will show a new generation of female boxers that they can do anything their male counterparts can do and for the first time ever compete at the same level for a unified world championship title.
