Taylor likely to move up a weight if she unifies her division

Katie Taylor could move up a weight in 2019 if she unifies her division by the end of the year.

The Bray lightweight added the IBF belt to her WBA crown last Saturday after an emphatic unanimous decision over Argentina’s Victoria Bustos at the Barclay’s Centre in New York.

The verdict improved the Wicklow orthodox, who now has 62 rounds of prize-fighting under her belt, to nine straight victories.
