Katie Taylor has been praised from one corner of the world to the other after retained her undisputed lightweight crown following a slug-fest with Delfine Peerson on Saturday evening.
In yet another tight fight Taylor was given the victory by unanimous decision winning 98-93, 96-94, 96-94.
Although Persoon put on a strong performance, she missed a number of shots were Taylor landed a number clean shots in a close fight that could have gone either way.
There’s now calls for Katie to be given even more praise with a socially distant welcome home back to her native Bray, Co. Wicklow.
