Katie, when you’re in the news and don’t want to be, don’t fight back

TWO great fighters. Little in common with each other, other than each having to face a storm of publicity. Negative publicity. Earned by one of them. Not earned by the other. One contemporaneous. One historic. Katie Taylor and the Duke of Wellington.
Last week, Taylor got swept into the story about the murder at her estranged father’s boxing gym in Bray, and was so infuriated that she issued a furious statement. We’ll come back to that.
