Confident Katie Taylor targets another early stoppage against Viviane Obenauf

Katie Taylor is aiming to record her second professional win in double-quick time tonight, while the Bray woman’s opponent, Viviane Obenauf, has joked that she will not resort to any Mike Tyson ear-biting tactics in a bid to cause a shock upset.

Former Olympic champion Taylor has her second pro contest this evening just two weeks after her successful paid debut, with this evening’s undercard bout against Obenauf in the live TV ‘float bout’ on a Sky Box Office fight card.

That means a ringwalk time somewhere between 8-9pm and a slot high up on the pay-per-view TV bill topped by heavyweight Anthony Joshua’s IBF world heavyweight title defence against Texan Eric Molina.
