The highly anticipated trilogy fight between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano at the weekend was not only a win for the sport but could ultimately prove to be a game-changing moment for women's boxing.

According to figures from VideoAmp and internal Netflix data, the Friday night bout — a majority decision win for Taylor — drew a worldwide audience of 6 million viewers from opening to closing bell. About 70 percent of that audience, or 4.2 million viewers, came from the United States.

While Paul faces criticism over his own boxing career, fighting a 58-year-old Mike Tyson and an inactive 39-year-old Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., he’s provided an opportunity for the women in the sport.
