Taylor ready to sacrifice Olympic dream
Peter revealed that before last year’s world championships semi-finals in Barbados, his daughter refused to fight in a skirt and tight-fitting vest which the authorities inferred that she and all other semi-finalists had to wear. And while the authorities relented on that occasion, Taylor fears the relevant powers may make such attire mandatory at next year’s Olympic qualifiers and Games, something he says he and his daughter won’t be part of.
“She won’t box, simple as that,” said Peter, who like his daughter, is a devoted born-again Christian.
