Comments Thread For: Amanda Serrano Cancellation Arrived Far Too Late

Hair spray ???? You put water in the eye and nothing happens. Unless they DID NOT have any water. BS.

This reminds me of when a black female fighter was in the middle of her fight and she kept fretting because her weave was falling off. In the corner, her trainer tried to rip it off and she protested, until he screamed in her face, “You want to look good or you want to win this fight?” For a moment, she looked stumped.

Once I saw her without the weave, I understood her concern.

And she lost the fight.

In order not to lose the whole promotion, and the fighters, promoters, trainers to all get paid, they kept the cancellation from the public.
Her remorse was genuine, but it was way too late in coming at the end of the show, they really miscalculated on this one.
The only saving grace was that they are going to give all of the fans who attended the show a full refund.
Now if Serrano's eye isn't permanently damaged from the hair dye, she's going to have to work/fight her way back into her boxing fan's good grace's.
She can do it, because she's got a great fighting fighting spirit, and incredible heart. She definitely does care about her boxing legacy, name, fans, and country.
That's why I believe that she'll learn from this fiasco, and come back even more rejuvenated, in order to get her boxing career back on the winning track!

She is 35. She does not have much time.

What are we talking here? She wouldn't be starting from scratch! I'm talking about 2-5 more fight's max, and that she can definitely due!
Just as long as her eye hasn't been permanently damaged that is, and the boxing commission's wherever she's going to be fighting have cleared her medically.

I don’t think there was a good way to handle it to be honest.

Either they let the public know on Thursday and the event turnout becomes piss poor with food and beverage sales nearly bankrupt at the colosseum or they just plow ahead, keep quiet, give the colosseum its share of alcohol sales and the other fighters fight with a packed house.

The event was fine by me. I had fun over there on Saturday and the act of good will by refunding everyone is a cherry on top even if we did lose out on seeing Amanda fight. Wish I had splurged on the $2,000 tickets to take pictures with Bud, Mosley, and Tito and then get that money refunded.

It’s a lesson for MVP promotions moving ahead. No way in hell would that have been handled in that manner by Golden Boy or Top Rank, though.
