DAZN has announced that Katie Taylor will defend her lightweight titles against Karen Elizabeth Carabajal in London next month. When it comes to discussing who the greatest female fighters of all-time are, it’s near enough impossible to leave Katie Taylor out of the conversation.
The Irish sensation is 21-0 and has spent the last few years firmly cementing her legacy as one of the best, not just of this generation, but in the history of the sport – and that’s not an exaggeration.
Her most recent appearance came back in April when she went toe to toe with Amanda Serrano in what was billed as one of the biggest fights ever.
After overcoming some early adversity, Taylor managed to grind out the victory and retain her belts. This time around, Taylor will have to take on an entirely different kind of challenge in the form of Karen Elizabeth Carabajal.
