Katie Taylor’s unbeaten record and status as undisputed lightweight champion will both be on the line this weekend, as the Irishwoman faces Karen Elizabeth Carabajal in London.
In a main-event clash at Wembley Arena, Taylor will look to stay on course for a rematch with Amanda Serrano, following the pair’s instant classic in April.
Taylor, 36, was a split-decision victor over Serrano in arguably the biggest fight in women’s boxing history, and fans are keen to see Taylor and the unified featherweight champion square off again.
First, however, Olympic gold medalist Taylor must overcome the unbeaten Carabajal, 32.
