Chantelle Cameron and Natasha Jonas in Chase for Katie Taylor Showdown

Published

on

Chantelle Cameron and Natasha Jonas are fighting to be another opponent of Katie Taylor after her fight with Amanda Serrano in Novel York on Saturday.

Taylor (24-1, 6 KO), 38, from Bray in Ireland, but WHO Trains in Connecticut, is 2-0, enters the Saturday defense of its world-handed titles in Madison Square Garden.

Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KO), 36, who as a child moved to Novel York from Puerto Rico, overcame a significant disadvantage that she accelerated three classes to Outland and Wobble Taylor in the greatest fight in the history of women’s boxing in November last year, while fighting his right eye.

But Taylor became forceful in later rounds to get 95-94 results with all three judges, after winning the first fight vs. Serrano in the issue of the disputed, divided decision in April 2022.

Cameron (20-1, 8 KO), 34, from Northampton in England and who is now training in Liverpool, also fights on the same card as Taylor vs. Serrano III in Madison Square Garden, when he is in the face of Jessica Camar (14-4-1, 3 KO).

Cameron inflicted the only defeat of Taylor, at most points in May 2023, before Ireland also took revenge on majority points in November 2023.

Cameron is signed for the most valuable promotions, companies Social Media Star Jake PauL, and because he is also a pretender for the WBC Taylor belt, the future opponent of Taylor looks like.

However, Cameron still has some doubts.

“I was told that I would fight the winner of Katie versus Amanda because I am the transient champion of WBC,” said Cameron ESPN.

“However, Amanda is not a 140-Funt warrior, but whoever wins, and if the title becomes empty, I will fight for the title after the next fight.

“I am not saying that I am sure that the third fight against Katie, because the fight with her in the trilogy should have been a long time ago. I fought her in Dublin twice and told me after the second in the ring that the fight against the trilogy would happen.

“I thought he was signed and sealed, I agreed to the date and place, and I actually took less money for her than the first two fights. But then I was told that he wanted to fight easier and fight her duty instead of me.

“She didn’t want to fight me again and did she change her mind?

Mother-of-one Jonas (16-3-1, 9 KO), 41, from Liverpool, has retirement plans on the shelf to see if he can receive one last day of remuneration compared to Taylor or Serrano.

Jonas lost its titles WBC and IBF World Welter Wweight on the British rival Lauren Price on points in March.

“Katie means much more to me because of our history, but the fight with the winner, whoever is, means that you have lanes on the line, so it makes sense,” said Jonas Espn.

“There are only three fights in which I could invest everything, and against Katie, Mikael Mayer and Amanda Serrano.

“I am sure that Cameron Cameron is higher in a queue than me to fight Katie because she signed a contract with Jake Paul. But 140 pounds are something that I could do comfortably and I am available.

“Fighting Katie would be perfect because there are only some fights that can motivate me, because you have to go through hell mentally and physically to prepare. If I intend to do it, I want to do it because of to motivate myself. Katie would bring it.”

Both Cameron and Jonas agree that Taylor’s utilize of her head can be a decisive factor again on Saturday. Serrano was seriously cut through the ass of the head in the 4th round of her second defeat from Taylor in November, and later Taylor took the point to utilize.

“I think it’s Katie’s style, I don’t think she does it on purpose, but she definitely uses her head,” said Cameron ESPN.

“I had opponents of her message before I fought Katie, telling me to think of her head and sticking to. We were aware that she was leading with my head before she entered both fights. I don’t think she did it on purpose, but when she sees how she cut you, she did it, she just did against Amandie and I in recurses. [by a clash of heads in Round 3] And then she made the decision [in the 2023 rematch].

“Katie is an incredible boxer, but she is enraged with her head and leads with her head.

“I hope that this will be a cleaner fight, but so far they have produced really good fights and I think it will be another good. It is challenging to say who will win, I think Amanda had pierced the first two fights, but Katie was forceful in the second, so sit on the fence.”

Jonas, who lost her unanimous decision from close results towards Taylor for world airy titles in 2021, says that Taylor must watch out for her head after last year she has managed a point against Serrano.

“Amanda thought she won and could do enough, but I thought Katie deserved to win the second fight,” said Jonas Espn.

“I thought that Amanda’s cutting completely changed the second fight when she was coming back to the fight, when she had cut, then changed her packed and played Katie. Amanda probably thought she had to do it because it was a terrifying cut, and Amanda lost her way, and Katie became more effective.

“I do not think that Strzępiek was deliberate, but Katie also knows how she boxes, and if you look at the faces of herself, Delfine Peroon and Chantelle after we went to Katie, we have nodules and unevenness on our faces, and they were not from the blows. It was a great decision for the judge in the second fight Serrano to make Katie, because they did It was a great decision.

“I think it’s a bit like Artur Beterbiv vs Dmitriry Bivol, if they fought 20 times, everyone would be really close, really high quality. Some gel styles for the production of classics, and so it is in the case of Katie and Amanda.

“Both girls raised women’s boxing to a different level. They don’t slide anyone, they are simply great rivals.

“The conversation around the boxing of women and around it interest in which they obtained is a recognition for both of them, women’s boxing is owed to them.”

"Tommy Morrison’s Son ‘Died Twice’: Brother’s Battle with Cancer"

Tommy Morrison’s son Trey has revealed for the first time that he has “died twice” while putting past differences aside to support his brother Kenzie through his fight with stomach cancer.

Trey Lippe Morrison made the revelation while asking people to pray for Kenzie, one day after World Boxing News reported that the 36-year-old had been diagnosed with cancer and a GoFundMe had been set up to help with medical bills.

The two sons of former heavyweight champion Tommy Morrison have had their differences over the years, something Trey acknowledged openly before making clear that none of it matters now.

“No 2 other people have had their differences like my brother and myself. F*** our differences!” Trey said.

“My brother Kenzie Morrison is in the fight of his life. I want him here! I love him.”

Trey Morrison ‘Died Twice’

Trey asked those praying for Kenzie to believe that his brother can recover before revealing something he had never previously made public.

“I’ve never shared this, but I’ve died twice, I’m still here, it didn’t matter how tough I was, it was all HIM,” he said.

Trey did not elaborate on when or under what circumstances those incidents occurred and has previously kept his personal health private.

The older sibling suffered serious injuries in a 2023 car wreck that left his boxing career in doubtwhile Kenzie’s own fighting career was interrupted by injuries and inactivity before his cancer diagnosis.

Both followed their famous father into boxing and displayed the considerable punching power associated with the Morrison namebut neither was able to build the momentum once expected.

Now, boxing has become secondary for both brothers.

Brothers Put Differences Aside

Kenzie revealed his stomach cancer diagnosis after spending around a month dealing with stomach and back problems.

In his latest update, Kenzie provided further information about his situation and the urgency surrounding his search for specialist treatment.

“It’s not too late, but we don’t got a lot of time,” Kenzie said.

For Trey, whatever differences existed between the brothers have now been pushed aside.

“I love you Kenzie, and I’ll be with you every step and breath of the way,” he said.

Trey also emphasized his faith throughout the message and asked others to share Kenzie’s fight as widely as possible.

“I truly believe he will do HIM and heal my brother,” Trey said of his belief in God.

“Share everything about my brothers fight, get the word out there, everybody BELIEVE!”

Amanda Westcott

The brothers may have taken different paths since following their famous father into boxing, but Trey’s message makes his priority clear.

He wants his brother here, and intends to be alongside him throughout the biggest fight of Kenzie’s life.

"Teofimo Lopez Targets Next Opponent After WBA Welterweight Title Victory Over Rolly Romero"

Teofimo Lopez already has his next target in mind following his victory over Rolly Romero.

Lopez claimed the WBA welterweight title with a majority decision win over Romero at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, becoming a three-division world champion in the process.

Fans have already began to speculate over who Lopez may turn his attention to next, and it didn’t take ‘The Takeover’ long to make his intentions perfectly clear.

Speaking in his post-fight press conferenceLopez revealed that he is looking to face the winner of next month’s WBC welterweight title fight between Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn.

“September 12th you’ve got Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn. We’ll see what happens there, we’ll watch. Obviously Keith Connolly [Lopez’s manager] manages Conor Benn so if he wins it’s a great fight to take across the pond, and I’m rooting for it anyway.”

Lopez also admitted he could be interested in a battle with IBF champion Liam Paro, but explained why he wouldn’t want to take on WBO champion Devin Haney just yet.

“I’d rather wait for Devin at the end, and the only reason why is to reclaim the whole situation with undisputed, not undisputed. We’ll see what Devin does on that end, so it’ll either be Liam Paro next or the winner of Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn.”

Lopez is referring to when he campaigned at lightweight and insisted he was undisputed champion following his win over Vasiliy Lomachenko, only for Haney to be recognised as the legitimate WBC titleholder, meaning there is plenty of history between the pair.
