Katie Taylor vs Chantelle Cameron LIVE: Boxing fight time, predictions and undercard

Here are a few thoughts from Indy Sport columnist Steve Bunce:

“Katie Taylor has been on a long, glorious and hard road to the ring in Dublin.

“Taylor has been worshipped and adored in Ireland long before she won her Olympic medal in 2012 and long before she won the first of her world titles in 2017. On Saturday, against a backdrop of joy, she returns and fights in Ireland for the first time since 2016 when she fought at a beauty spa in Tralee.

“She could have taken an easy fight, gone back over old ground, boxed the ears off a woman from Argentina or made one of the other champions jump up in weight for a shot at her four lightweight belts. That would have been the easy plan, the safe route. However, a rematch with Amanda Serrano collapsed and Chantelle Cameron was found. It might just be one of the boldest pieces of match-making that I have ever known.”

We’ll have live updates from start to finish, so stick with us throughout!

First of all, here is a look at tonight’s fight card (subject to late changes):

Katie Taylor vs Chantelle Cameron (for Cameron’s IBF, WBA, WBC and WBO women’s super-lightweight titles)

Dennis Hogan vs James Metcalf (super-welterweight)

Gary Cully vs Jose Felix (lightweight)

Thomas Carty vs Jay McFarlane (heavyweight)

Caoimhin Agyarko vs Grant Dennis (super-welterweight)

Maisey Rose Courtney vs Kate Radomska (flyweight)

Remarkably, Taylor is fighting in her home country of Ireland for the first time in her professional career, as the lightweight champion challenges Cameron for the super-lightweight titles.

Taylor is not only aiming to add more belts to her collection; she also wants to keep alive a rematch with Amanda Serrano, whom she narrowly outpointed last year in the biggest women’s fight in boxing history. Meanwhile, Cameron is looking to boost her own legacy at Taylor’s expense, and the Briton should represent a stern test for the home fighter here.

Taylor, 36, enters the main event undefeated at 22-0 (6 knockouts), while Cameron, 32, has a pro record of 17-0 (8 KOs).
