Katie Taylor is hoping to reward Irish boxing fans for their support with a massive Croke Park homecoming in 2023.
The Bray fighter has long dreamt of a mega event on Irish soil, having never fought here as a professional. Taylor returns to action tonight to defend her WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO world lightweight belts and her undefeated status against Argentinian Karen Elizabeth Carabajal in London.
But she is hoping she can give the Irish fans who stood by her “through the highs and the lows” a sell-out show in Dublin next spring. She said: “I think everyone is anxious to get the Croke Park fight on. That would just be a dream for me. It’s my dream venue to fight.
