Pumped up Eddie Hearn leads sing-song as Katie Taylor has her say
The pair teamed up in 2016 after Taylor inquired about turning pro. They have spent a remarkable nine years working together, during which time he has helped promote Taylor to become one of the biggest names in boxing.
Throughout her professional career, Hearn has been ever-present with Team Taylor and walked out of Madison Square Garden on Friday night with a tri-colour draped around his neck.
And after her win, an ecstatic Hearn led the famous Ole, ole, ole chant while wearing an Irish-branded bucket hat. Hearn playfully then put on an Irish accent, which Taylor described as 'spot on'.
Hearn was less ecstatic when asked about Netflix's scoring of the event. The streaming giant scored the bout as a draw, but Taylor was scored a 97-93 winner on two of the three scorecards.
"I mean, if you want to listen to Netflix scoring it 95-95 .... How can you give Serrano five rounds?" he told IFL.
"If I was really, really, really generous, I give her three rounds. And after the seventh round, she was kind of... she was so deflated, she couldn't win a round.
"Katie's feet were too fast, it was an absolute schooling.
"Just a complete masterclass, so proud of her, she's the greatest female fighter of all time, 3-0."
Taylor said post-fight that she still has dreams about fighting in Croke Park, and that seems like one of the few reasons Taylor has to fight again. Now 39, she ended the trilogy in the most convincing of fashions. A trilogy bout against Chantelle Cameron could possibly be her next move but Taylor did say she would take time to decide her future.

WATCH: Young fan's unforgettable moment as he performs on stage with The Script
A young music fan had the night of his dreams on Saturday when he got to perform on stage alongside his favourite band, The Script, in Limerick. Young 'Charlie', charmed the crowd as he sang and helped perform a little piano piece alongside his musical hero and The Script frontman, Danny O'Donoghue, on stage at Thomond Park. O'Donoghue told the crowd at the band's only Irish date on their Satellites tour that he picked Charlie out of the masses after the lad caught his eye dressed in a Satellites Tour t-shirt and a Script bucket hat and waving a giant flag of the Irish pop-rock band. Charlie performed a duet with O'Donoghue and the band on a mini circular stage located in the middle of the heaving crowd during a version of the band's ballad, Never Seen Anything - 'Quite Like You'. 'Everybody give it up for Charlie,' O'Donoghue screamed as he invited the boy to join him on stage. Young Charlie warmed the heart of O'Donoghue and the crowd when he pointed at the singer and sang: 'I've never seen anything quite like you tonight.' O'Donoghue returned the favour and said: 'I've never seen anything quite like Charlie tonight.' 'Deadly', beamed O'Donoghue after the boy hit the final note on the singer's piano to bring the Thomond theatre to its feet. 'They're all singing your name, bro,' the frontman said as the crowd chanted: 'Charlie… Charlie… Charlie." O'Donoghue and the band rocked a sun-drenched Limerick with their anthem pop-rock, including hits such as Hall of Fame, The Man Who Can't Be Moved and Superheroes. With Limerick recently used to winning senior hurling All-Irelands - five in the past eight years - The Script concert, at one point, was akin to another All-Ireland Final after-party as the band's light show shrouded fans in green and white during the group's storming Irish rock anthem Paint The Town Green. On a glorious summer night, it all went to script. The Irish Mirror's Crime Writers Michael O'Toole and Paul Healy are writing a new weekly newsletter called Crime Ireland.

Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland's first 'shopping frenzy'. During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne's 'Better Value' bargains. Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 - starting with apples and oranges. The retailer said: "Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town. "Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong. "Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas." The retailer's first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960. They added: "In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed. "Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England." Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
