Katie Taylor said she was "pinching" herself as she sat next to Mike Tyson at the Apollo Theater in New York on Monday evening. On July 20th at Cowboy Stadium, Taylor will fight Amanda Serrano in the co-main event on a bill which also features Tyson against Jake Paul. The card will be broadcast live on Netflix. 

"Well, I just got a phone call from my manager Brian a few weeks ago saying I was going to be on the same card as Mike Tyson and Jake Paul," said Taylor when asked how the fight came to be.
