Conor McGregor demands Croke Park rematch for Katie Taylor after Chantelle Cameron defeat

Conor McGregor has demanded that Katie Taylor is given a rematch with Chantelle Cameron at Dublin's Croke Park after losing a razor-close decision last night.

The Irishman was ringside for the beloved Irishwoman's long-awaited homecoming, and contributed an hefty sum to the event's promotion as a sponsor. But he was left heartbroken when the judges scored the thrilling contest a majority decision in Cameron's favour, as the super-lightweight title stayed in the Northampton native's possession.

And speaking exclusively with Mirror Fighting after the bout, McGregor admitted that he was happy with the decision, before reminding Taylor that she is still the undisputed lightweight champion of the world. The Irishwoman has a rematch clause, and is expected to exercise it in order to earn another shot at Cameron.
