Amanda Serrano won the fight via unanimous decision, and it was evident that she was training hard for it. Before the fight, during her training, Amanda Serrano made ‘ruff’ sparring revelation in a recent tweet.
This fight was being looked forward to by many. Two in attendance were Newark boys, Shakur Stevenson and Michael B. Jordan. The fans were pretty excited to see both entities sharing the same frame, as both of them have their events coming up in a few months. And it was also wholesome, to watch the two of them together, as both are connected to boxing for different reasons but still share the same outlook.

Now there was also a video that was shared in a tweet by BOXRAW, and the fans have left some comments down there. But the essence was more or less the same. One fan couldn’t figure out the venue where the photo was taken.
Where is this ?

Another fan was excited to see the two big names coming out of Newark. He wrote ‘Brick City’ which is another name for Newark.
BRICK CITY IN THE HOUSE

But not all comments were positive. Some criticized the gesture of Michael B. Jordan in the video.
One fan said that Michael is exactly like Sylvester Stallone, as these actors “think they’re somewhat real fighters”. And the same fan also accused Shakur Stevenson of being a boring boxer and asked for better fighters like Gervonta Davis and Arthur Beterbiev.
Micheal is like Stallone, they somehow think their real boxers. Plus shakur is a boring fighter with his running. Someone get tank or beterbiev in the building @ShakurStevenson @_MichealBJordan @Gervontaa
