Everyone's talking about the recent women's boxing match between Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor. The fight was full of action, but it's the controversial decisions that have people buzzing. South Carolina Gamecocks coach Dawn Staley wasn't quiet about her feelings. She took to social media to express her thoughts. "Guess what? Women's boxing has its own issues too! " she wrote, clearly supporting Serrano.

So, what happened? Serrano started strong, landing powerful jabs. But in the fourth round, things changed. Serrano got a nasty cut above her eye. Many fans believed it was from a headbutt by Taylor. In the eighth round, Taylor lost a point for another alleged headbutt. Despite this, Taylor won with a close 95-94 score. The crowd was not happy, and neither was Serrano. She fought bravely, even with blood dripping from her eye.

Similar controversies happened in the WNBA Finals. The Minnesota Lynx's coach, Cheryl Reeve, said she felt the win was "stolen" from her team due to a foul call. She believed it was marginal and should have been reversed. This isn't the first time the WNBA faced officiating issues. Both the Lynx and New York Liberty had complaints during the Finals.

These incidents raise questions about fairness in women's sports. Athletes work incredibly hard, and we hope they get the results they deserve. The credibility and representation of women's sports depend on fair judgments.
