Taylor expects toughest fight yet in the Garden

Katie Taylor says the defence of her IBF and WBA World Lightweight titles against current WBC World super-featherweight champion, Eva Wahlstrom at Madison Square Garden Saturday night will be the toughest assignment of her professional career but remains confident of overcoming her unbeaten opponent.
Taylor hopes to sign off 2018 with another successful title defence with 2019 set to be a blockbuster year for both Taylor and womenâs boxing in general.
âItâs definitely my biggest test to date but I feel well prepared for this type of challenge and Iâve been training hard over the last few months,â said the 32-year-old Bray native.
Since the Cindy Serrano fight I just went into camp for this fight so Iâm definitely ready, these are the kind of fights that I want, these are the challenges I want and I think on Saturday night youâre going to see the best of womenâs boxing which is going to be huge.â
Five-time world champion and Olympic gold medallist Taylor [11-0, 5KOs], was victorious three times against her 38-year-old Finnish opponent in the amateur ranks with Wahlstrom [22-0-1, 3KOs] stepping up to lightweight to face Taylor and aiming to become a two-weight world champion.
Meanwhile Anthony Joshua has challenged Deontay Wilder to fight him at Wembley on April 13.
The IBO, WBA and WBO heavyweight champion had to watch on as WBC holder Wilder and Tyson Fury fought out a thrilling draw in Los Angeles a fortnight ago.
The WBC has since ordered a direct rematch, which if it goes ahead would leave Joshua on the edge of the biggest fights in his division.
But Joshua insists he wants part of the action.
âApril 13, in London. I donât know what more I have to do to get that message across. Heâs (Wilder) more interested in fighting Tyson Fury - Tyson Fury holds no world titles.â Joshua told American show First Take.
âI canât control what Deontay Wilder does, what Tyson Fury does, or what they say. What I can do is control what I do and say.
I made sure with the negotiations I booked the date in advance, the venue in advance, and am making my point clear for everyone, I am willing to fight any one of these guys, especially the champion Deontay Wilder, at Wembley, April 13.
Wilder this week said Joshuaâs team was âbeggingâ for a fight, while the Brit says he would much rather fight the American than domestic rival Fury.
Fury is the lineal heavyweight champion having surrendered the belts he took off Wladimir Klitschko in November 2015 when he took time out of the sport.
He remains undefeated since, but Joshua said: âIâm not interested in Tyson Fury, heâs not the champion.
âWhen I was joining the heavyweight ranks it was WBO, WBA, WBC, IBF... I donât know where this lineal has popped out of the woodwork from.
âBut if Iâve got to get my hands on that too, and thatâs a belt that the world is interested in, Fury can step in if heâs serious.
âI want to fight the champion, Iâm the one leading the pack, Iâve been doing that since I made my debut.
âFive years in, seven title defences and Iâm running the game and I donât know what more I have to do to get that message across.â
