It tops an incredible all-women’s card headlining live on Netflix.

And there will be an incredible – and record-breaking – 17 WORLD TITLES on the line throughout the night.

The record attempt exclusively includes belts from the four major boxing sanctioning bodies, the WBC, WBA, WBO and IBF.

An official Guinness World Record adjudicator will also be in attendance with the current record set at 12.

Taylor, 36, puts her four undisputed 140lb super-lightweight titles on the line against Serrano, 36.

Similarly, Alycia Baumgardne, 31, will defend all four of her super-featherweight titles against undefeated Spaniard Jennifer Miranda, 38.

A third undisputed clash as bantamweight between Cherneka Johnson, 30, and Shurretta Metcalf, 40, brings the total up to 12.

American Metcalf was initially due to face Dina Thorslund for three of the four major world titles.

But Dane Thorslund, 31, was forced to pull out after discovering she was pregnant with her second child.

WBA champ Johnson stepped in on five weeks’ notice while Thorslund subsequently vacated her WBO and WBC titles.

So the fight was upgraded to a four-belt unification with the vacant titles placed on the line alongside Johnson’s WBA belt and Metcalf’s IBF strap.

Brit Savannah Marshall, 34, and Shadasia Green, 35 unify the IBF and WBO super-middleweight belts.

And Ellie Scotney, 27, and Yamileth Mercado, 27, compete for the IBF, WBO and WBC super-bantamweight straps.

It takes the total of belts 17 with Most Valuable Promotions co-founders Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian promoting the event.

They said: “This is exactly the kind of history we set out to make when we founded Most Valuable Promotions.

“Breaking a Guinness World Records title for most world championship belts ever contested on a single fight card this Friday at Taylor vs Serrano 3 would be a landmark moment for both boxing and women’s sports.

“There’s no place more fitting for this moment than the world’s most iconic arena, Madison Square Garden.

“With a global platform on Netflix and the best women’s fighters on the planet, Friday, July 11 is set to be a record-breaking night the world will never forget.”
