Taylor may face US opponent in Cork again

WORLD Champion Katie Taylor is to top the bill at the Rochestown Park Hotel in Cork on November 6 when a Garda Síochána selection host the NYPD.

The parties have twice met at the Cork venue and the Gardaí have also travelled to New York for sell-out charity shows – the most recent coming in March.

An opponent has to be finalised but Queen Underwood, who gave Taylor a stern test in the world championships semi-finals was one of those under consideration for the Cork show.
