Taylor close to resolution with IABA

Irish Olympic gold medal winner Katie Taylor is hoping her dispute with the Irish Amateur Boxing Association is nearing a resolution.

The Bray woman hit out at the IABA last month due to the lack of progress in establishing a women’s form of the World Series of Boxing (WSB). Taylor admitted she was flirting with the idea of turning pro as she had only one competitive fight this year at the European Union Amateur Boxing Championships in July.

“It’s been a frustrating year for me with the lack of developments,” she said yesterday on the Ray Darcy Show.
