Katie Taylor will bring the curtain down on her decorated career in a farewell fight against Flora Pili on 5 September at Croke Park.
Taylor will bid to become a three-time undisputed champion against unbeaten French fighter Pili in what will be the first boxing event at the iconic Gaelic Games venue since Muhammad Ali’s victory over Al ‘Blue’ Lewis in July 1972.
The 39-year-old Irishwoman has not boxed since completing a clean sweep of the trilogy against Amanda Serrano in New York’s Madison Square Garden last July, which saw her retain her undisputed light-welterweight title.
