We should probably start a thread on this fight/event.

Anybody going?

Nice one. Deserves its own thread.

Not sure the full undercard but Cully and Carty due on I believe; against two dummies, no doubt.

MAIN EVENT: Katie Taylor vs Chantelle Cameron - for WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, IBO, and The Ring light-welterweight titles
Dennis Hogan vs JJ Metcalf - for IBO super-welterweight titles
Terri Harper vs Cecilia Braekhus - for WBA super-welterweight titles
Gary Cully vs Jose Felix
Caoimhin Agyarko vs Grant Dennis
Thomas Carty vs Jay McFarlane
Maisey Rose Courtney vs Kate Radomska

I’ll have it on channel 429 Sky!!

What time does the undercard start at folks? I guess Katie's fight is scheduled for around the 22.30 mark?

Also is there any access for public to press conferences or weigh ins?

I think the weigh in is free but they ran a draw for tickets.

I'm going to be there and expect the atmosphere will be great. A potentially interesting fight and I'm also looking forward to seeing Cully in person.

Loving Chantelle's training gear, very Northampton-centric colours with the Northamptonshire Tudor Rose on her back.

As the fight gets nearer and nearer, I'm less and less confident, but I'd love Cameron to do it.

Hehe, sorry 😄, but it's just nice seeing someone from my town (and my area of my hometown) do well. I do think Taylor will probably beat her though.

Open workouts at Dundrum shopping centre. Who'd have thunk it!

How much bigger is Cameron likely to be on fightnight? 8-10lbs?

I doubt there is much in it. Cameron started as a 25 year old at 130 and only moved up to 140 to get an easy title. I think they look exactly the same size.

walshb · 19-05-2023 8:40am

There is no real size difference. Both very similarly sized women.

I see Cameron also mentioning judges and how she needs to make sure of it!!!

As I've said before, fair **** to Taylor. She could have easily taken a glorified sparring session while waiting for Serrano.

That being said, she should have too much for Cameron.

Any heads here going to this?

How reliable is DAZN for live streaming? Wondering if I should get it via the Sky channel instead of the app/web version. Presumably you can cancel both before it goes into a second month of charges? I see it says you've to give 30 days notice with the next payment 19th of June so wondering if they end up locking you in for 2 month?
