“Croke Park has to happen!”
Katie Taylor has called for a trilogy fight against Chantelle Cameron at Croke Park next year.
Taylor defeated Cameron at the 3Arena in Dublin on Saturday night via majority decision after a brilliant bout.

Taylor, cheered on by a raucous home crowd, produced a stunning performance in what was one of the best boxing bouts of the year.

Immediately after the result was announced, Taylor’s promoter Eddie Hearn entered the ring to call for a trilogy fight between the pair at Croke Park next year.
“Honestly, it’s the single greatest night I think I’ve experienced in the sport,” Matchroom promoter Hearn said.
“She (Taylor) is one of the biggest legends to ever come out of this country.
“In a world where everybody’s life is under the microscope, have you ever heard anyone ever say a bad word about this woman?
“Croke Park has to happen!”
Katie gave her support to the idea of a trilogy bout against the British fighter, saying:
“I don’t think there’s ever been a trilogy in women’s boxing. This could be the first.”
Taylor then called for the fight to take place at Croke Park.
“This is my real homecoming tonight,” she said after becoming a two-weight undisputed world champion.
“Let’s get the trilogy at Croke Park,” she said to a huge cheer at the 3Arena.
