UFC legend and boxing hall-of-fame fighter Holly Holm has admitted she is intrigued by a fight with Katie Taylor at Croke Park in Dublin.
The Irishwoman is the undisputed lightweight champion; a division where Holm never fought during her days as a three-weight boxing world champion. But she does compete at that 135lb limit, known in MMA as bantamweight, in the UFC, where she became world champion by beating Ronda Rousey in an historic upset in 2015.
Holm's bout with Rousey took place in front of over 57,000 fans in Melbourne, one of the biggest live events in MMA history and certainly the biggest women's fight of all time. But a boxing match with Taylor in front of more than 80,000 at Dublin's Croke Park would likely smash that record for both live gate and viewership, which is a prospect she is keen on looking into.
