Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor spar over whether 3rd fight should have featured 3-minute rounds

As they head for a third bout, Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor have found something to fight about. A respectful rivalry turned testy Wednesday over Serrano's contention that the undisputed 140-pound champion backed out of an agreement to stage their July 11 match in 12 three-minute rounds, the same as a men's championship match. Both of Taylor's narrow victories over Serrano have come in fights featuring 10 rounds that were two minutes long, the standard for women's boxing.
