The TV channel Katie Taylor's fight is on tonight v Karen Elizabeth Carabajal

After the greatest night of her career earlier this year, Katie Taylor returns to action in much different circumstances on Saturday.

The undisputed lightweight champion defeated Amanda Serrano in a fight of the year contender at Madison Square Garden on what was an historic night as the pair became the first females to headline a show at the Mecca of Boxing in New York.

Taylor headlines tonight's card at the Wembley Arena in London, the same venue where she made her professional debut against Poland's Karina Kopinska in 2016. She also faced Spaniard Miriam Gutierrez at the same arena during lockdown in 2020.

Although the build-up to this fight against the relatively unknown Karen Elizabeth Carabajal has been much more low-key than it was for the Serrano contest back in April, Taylor remains as focussed as ever and insists the best is yet to come from her.

Carabajal is undefeated in 19 professional fights, with this bout being her first outside of her native Argentina.

There's Irish interest on the undercard too, with Kildare's Gary Cully, who is trained by Taylor's father Pete, facing France's Jaouad Belmehdi.

Belfast's Caoimhin Agyarko was also due to fight on the card, but had to withdraw from his bout due to a hand injury.

Quotes corner

Katie Taylor: “I don’t find it difficult at all to motivate myself, to be quite honest.

“Training camp is going brilliantly, my mindset is still completely the same that it ever has been and I just love the sport.

“I’m still as passionate about the sport today as I ever was and that’s where the motivation comes from.

“I really genuinely believe that people haven’t seen the best of me yet and I’m looking forward to showcasing that the best is yet to come. I don’t live on past performances or past successes.”

Karen Elizabeth Carabajal: “It’s always a dream when you go into the sport to fight for a world title and I’m facing obviously the number one in the sport.

“As soon as we found out that this opportunity had arisen then we were working even harder. But I feel like we’ve been working hard enough to make us ready for this opportunity.

“When you dream about the opportunity of getting a world title, you normally think about just getting the opportunity to fight for one belt and then you go acquiring the others.

“But in this case it’s different and it’s a possibility that we could never have imagined.

“We know that we have to just go into it as if it were just one other fight and do the best we can to make sure we take home the belts.”
