In conversation, Taylor took a dig at Paul by mentioning that he has never been involved in a real fight. She said, “As far as Jake Paul – this isn’t a game, this is actually a real fight. He’s never been involved in a fight like this and he never will be involved in a fight like this.”
She further goes on to say that her bout with Serrano is a real fight, something that Paul ‘knows nothing about’.
Katie I appreciate you thanking me for making this fight happen at a level Eddie never could. But the only thing real is you, your team and Eddie talk a lot of shit but can’t back it up. Respect on your legacy. But Amanda Serrano is the greatest female boxer of all time. And New. https://t.co/2q93rHXLCK
