Paul-Woodley Co-Main Event Winner Amanda Serrano Wants The ‘Right Pay Day’

Amanda Serrano continues to prove why she is one of the best female fighters in the world, and it’s about time she is paid like it. Serrano (41-1-1), who competes in MMA and boxing, stepped into the ring on Sunday against Yamileth Mercado to defend her unified WBC, IBO, and WBO titles, and needed all 10 rounds to get the job done. The bout served as the co-main event of Paul vs. Woodley, which aired on Showtime pay-per-view on Sunday evening. She used her victory to ask for better pay for herself, a wold champ, and female fighters.

“I need the right pay day,” Serrano said. “I’ve done everything I’ve had to do. I’m fighting good fights – top-10 girls. I’m beating them. I’m doing what I have to do to continue to keep my name out there, and it’s just up to the promoters and the money. I want to get paid what I deserve.”

Serrano picked up her 41st professional boxing victory, having won titles in seven different weight divisions along the way. As an MMA fighter, she is 2-0-1. Her most recent MMA bout took place in June against Valentina Garcia at iKon Fighting Federation 7, a fight she won by guillotine choke in the first round.
