The first time around when Serrano and Taylor met at the center of the ring, it was touted as the biggest female boxing match in recent history. And they got paid likewise, with both Serrano and Taylor walking out with million dollar pay cheques. Since then, Serrano has managed to build substantially more wealth, and here’s how she did it.

Amanda Serrano: Boss moves and big bucks

With less than two weeks left in her bout, Serrano hopped on X to write, “I’m not sure why some fighters worry so much about what others do. Do your own thing!!” But you must be asking what’s the secret to her wealth? Well, here it is—she added, “I mind my own business & only focus on me & my fighters, because of this I make millions”.

It turns out sheer hard work and focus on self is ultimately what made Serrano one of the richest female boxers. And guess what? She is proud of it, as she wrote, “It feels Amazing to be the Boss! This by far is as good as making Money”. Not to forget she is also grateful for it, so she thanked God and her fans. “God has Blessed me with the Best team & the Greatest fans Ever”, Serrano wrote.

Interestingly, Serrano might be planning to make a big move, which could see her secure an enormous deal with the WWE!

Serrano reveals how her nephew inspired her

‘The Real Deal’ has a history of exceeding expectations in the ring, and given the opportunity, she would jump on the chance to showcase the same in the professional wrestling ranks. Serrano started training for pro wrestling five years ago, so in an interview with Sports Illustrated’s Fan Nation, she said, “I’ve always wanted to step into WWE”.

You would never guess where she got this idea from. But you don’t have to because Serrano said, “My nephew’s dream is to become a WWE wrestler, and he’s the one who really got me into this”. The best time for Serrano to make the jump would be in 2025 after she is done with the Taylor fight. Plus, her promoter Jake Paul has appeared in WWE in a storyline involving his brother Logan Paul, who has achieved success in the scene.

With that said, Amanda Serrano quite simply skipped the nitty gritty of making money and shared her secret to making millions in the sport, which turns out to be hard work and focus on oneself. And her upcoming fights will significantly add to her existing vast wealth. What did you think of her secret?
