Amanda Serrano could have been accused of grandstanding on Monday when she chose her press conference monologue to challenge Katie Taylor to change the duration of their groundbreaking April fight there and then.

From her top table high above central London, the Brooklynite suggested that she and Taylor agree beneath the glare of the media spotlight to fight over 12 three-minute rounds when they finally meet on April 30 in Madison Square Garden.
