Katie Taylor has lost the first fight of her career in what was a truly epic fight against Chantelle Cameron.
The Bray fighter finally got to fight on Irish soil for the first time in her professional career but it was not the dream return for Taylor. The 2012 Olympic gold medal winner was greeted by an electric Dublin crowd as she entered the ring with a strong 9,000 crowd in attendance in a night to remember in Dublin.
From the get-go it was clear that Taylor was in for a battle with Cameron acting the aggressor and showed her power early on but Taylor did show her own speed in round one as the pair traded blows. And Cameron came out on the front foot in the second and worked Taylor against the ropes with the Bray boxer struggling to dominate the fight but did have her moments in a true 50/50 round.
