There was a letter to this paper back in June that took a somewhat scornful view of the news that family tickets would be available for Katie Taylor’s fight in Croke Park this weekend.
Katie Taylor’s visit to UPMC Nowlan Park back in June was a special occasion that Kilkenny captain Caoimhe Dowling will never forget, for all the right reasons.
Dave Allen couldn’t care less. As the relentless Matchroom Boxing-powered Katie Taylor machine churns out platitude after hackneyed platitude about the lore of Croke Park, Allen has rocked up to the big show like an extra who never bothered to look at the script.

Sept 3 : Ireland's Katie Taylor will bring down the curtain on her career with a fight against Flora Pili of France at Dublin's Croke Park on Saturday in which she will try to achieve a fairytale finish to an extraordinary boxing story.

“I won’t be like Tyson Fury, coming back again and again,” Katie Taylor told me with a little smile a few years ago as she explained how, when she finally retired, she would leave boxing for good. The moment is almost here because, on Saturday night, in front of 80,000 fans at a fevered Croke Park, Taylor will fight for the very last time. She will depart as a quietly defiant pioneer and an overwhelming force for good – both in Ireland and women’s boxing.
Katie Taylor’s public workout started with a standing ovation and ended with the Bray boxer lacing her glove on the hand of a 10-year-old girl. Legacy. Let there be no doubt, Taylor is holding the pen that writes the script of her final chapter this week.
