Taylor to box the best in Europe

KATIE TAYLOR will launch her 2008 season in Fermoy tonight when she meets Klara Svensson of Sweden on a bill that will include eight women’s contests at the Loreto Sports Complex (7.30pm).

Taylor to box the best in Europe

The 20-year-old lightweight from Bray will be stepping up to light welter for this contest but she showed that she is quite capable of conceding the weight when she went to war with tough Canadian, Katie Dunn, in one of two exhibition bouts at the World Championships in Chicago last year.

This will be her fourth appearance in Fermoy. Since her first she has gone on to win two European and one world title and establish herself among the best amateur boxers in the world, male or female.
