Katie Taylor has dismissed talk of her retiring and has set her sights on a rematch against Chantelle Cameron.
The Bray Bomber was defeated by the undisputed super lightweight champion in Dublin's 3Arena earlier this month, marking her first loss in her professional career.
Taylor has vowed she "will learn" from the defeat and is returning to America to start training for the rematch. She told RTE: "I don't even know what retirement means. I definitely don't feel like it's time for me to retire.

"It will happen one day in the future, but now my sights are set on securing a rematch with Chantelle.
"I take it fight by fight and year by year, but right now I'm not going to end my career like that. I'm excited to step back in there and perform. This is my passion and I'm so grateful to be doing it every day.
"I haven't looked back on the fight yet. I think the right person won. I have to take the loss and move on from it. I'm just excited to get back to America to start training again for the rematch."
The 36-year-old added that there is "a lot she would do differently".
"That is part of a loss," she said. "You have to learn from it. You always learn more from your failures and disappointments [than your victories]. That is where the growth happens during those moments.
"I will learn from this. I definitely didn't feel myself in there. I did feel very, very tired straight away. I'll just have to go back to the drawing board."
