'Do it at Anfield' - Joe Gallagher sends blunt Liverpool message to Katie Taylor amid Natasha Jonas talk

Joe Gallagher wants to see Natasha Jonas take on Katie Taylor at Anfield next year and believes his fighter should be in the running for BBC Sports Personality of the Year.

Jonas added the IBF super-welterweight title to the WBO and WBC straps she already held with victory against Marie-Eve Dicaire over the weekend. The 38-year-old kicked-off the year by stopping Chris Namus to claim the WBO crown on the undercard of the clash between Amir Khan and Kell Brook in February.

Jonas then returned to Liverpool to beat Patricia Berghult for the WBC title on points in September before beating Dicaire at the AO Arena on Saturday night. Claressa Shields, Katie Taylor and Terri Harper have all been mentioned as possible opponents for Jonas to face in 2023, but Gallagher was quick to rule out his fighter facing the 26-year-old.
