'Even though Ross has been with her for the last 10 years, I still know Katie better than anybody else.
"When you have two people that's interested in one person, the conversation is always going to be constructive. Two heads is better than one.

'Katie's got the abilities to adapt all the time and obviously, Amanda's going to adapt as well.
"You've seen the best of Amanda Serrano in both the fights in all fairness, but I still don't think you've seen the best of Katie Taylor.
'I think in this fight you're going to see the best of Katie Taylor and it is going to shock Amanda Serrano.'
Taylor leads the rivalry 2-0 after controversial decision wins in 2022 and 2024.
But Serrano and many others has disputed both results - setting the stage for what could be a fiery decider in what's been a legendary rivalry.
The fight will be broadcast live on Netflix from New York City on Thursday, July 11.

Staying in? Here's what to watch on Netflix this weekend
If you are choosing the sofa this weekend and looking for entertainment, then there is a huge choice of new material dropping on Netflix to keep you engrossed over the next two nights at least. It seems reality show makers keep coming up with crazier and crazier ideas to make new hit shows, and this latest one is going to make some of us quake with fear at the thought of what contestants are being asked to do. Watch All the Sharks combines four teams of contestants made up of shark experts and shark enthusiasts, who will travel the globe trying to find the most elusive shark species. Pic: Nikos Pekiaridis/NurPhoto via Getty Images They must film the sharks when they find them, and are awarded points for every shark they find. The more elusive and rare the shark, the more points they earn and in the end, the team with the most points can walk away with $50,000 for their chosen charity. Filmed over six stunning locations, the show offers stunning visuals of undersea life and will be a hit with anyone who has ever dreamt of scuba diving in Australia, the Maldives, the Galapagos Islands, Japan, South Africa or the Bahamas. Pic: No Ju-han/Netflix If that kind of thing doesn't float your boat, then the new series 'Attack on London, Hunting the 7/7 Bombers' takes us inside what happened when terrorists targeted London city through its Tube Train network some 20 years ago. It promises insider accounts and never-seen-before footage telling the story of the 7/7 bombings on London's transport network in 2005 — and its explosive aftermath. The attacks caused untold devastation and sparked the biggest manhunt the UK has ever seen. A dark, suspenseful thriller is how the latest offering from Korea is being described. 'Wall to Wall tells the story of a young man who poured his life savings into a new apartment only to discover its walls are full of disturbing noises, hostile neighbors and unsettling secrets. Pic: Netflix © 2025 One to watch if that's your kind of thing and you don't mind subtitles. Korean dramas have become increasingly popular in the past few years for their intrigue and suspense. The number one show on Netflix is still Korean dystopian series Squid Game, which is mindbendingly excruciating to watch, but worth every second. Or if the USA and the reality of watching the rigorous training undertaken by the cheerleading squad of the Dallas Cowboys American Football Team, then 'America's Sweethearts' 'Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders' is a Netflix docu-series following the lives of the ladies involved in the squad and the tough training regime they must undergo, its brutal at times, it takes no prisoners and the coaches have no qualms about cutting someone from the squad for being a little overweight, or not coming up to scratch at training. It's a tough one and not for the fainthearted. Season two premiered on June 18th, 2025, and while a third season hasn't been officially announced, the series has been renewed, and the team has teased the audition process for the coming year.
