The two women's boxing pioneers will face each other once more next month.

One of the biggest boxing events of the year will take place on November 15 in Dallas, Texas. 

It will be the stage for the return of boxing legend Mike Tyson who will face Jake Paul at AT&T Stadium, the home of the Dallas Cowboys. 

There is also a co-main event which fans will be eager to see with Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano going head-to-head in a long awaited rematch. 

It has been over two years since Taylor and Serrano met for the former's undisputed women's lightweight title in what was a historic matchup at New York's Madison Square Garden. 

The first fight lived up to the hype with Taylor getting the win via split decision in a contest which could have gone either way. 

When the rematch was made official, it was expected that Taylor's undisputed super lightweight title would be on the line, but in a recent interview with the Irish Mirror, the Irish sporting superstar revealed that the contest will now be at a 138lb catchweight, two pounds below the 140 super lightweight limit. 

"The fight has actually been made at 138, it's a catchweight, but I think if you look at myself and Serrano we're the same size," Taylor said.

"I could make 126lbs as well if I tried. I don't think she's looked too well at that weight for the last few fights.

"She looks drained for making that weight so I don't know if it's any advantage or not, but I certainly feel good at this weight, I feel strong at this weight."

Since losing to Taylor, Serrano has put together a five-fight winning streak, with her latest success being a second round stoppage win against Stevie Morgan in July.
