Pete Taylor said they were preparing for a tough fight at the ExCel Arena today (2.30pm) when his daughter, Katie, will take on Natasha Jonas for the bronze medal at the inaugural women’s Olympic tournament.

KATIE TAYLOR sparred with world champion Guillermo Rigondeaux when he visited Limerick a few weeks ago and now she has been added to the undercard at the CityWest Convention Centre on Saturday night when the double Olympic champion defends his WBA super bantamweight title against Willie “Big Bang” Casey.
