Katie Taylor won’t get out of bed for $130,000

Belgium’s WBC lightweight champion Delfine Persoon offered unified IBF/WBA champion Katie Taylor much more than $100,000 for a unification showdown, according to her coach Filip Tampere.

Taylor’s manager Brian Peters said Taylor wouldn’t get out of bed for $130,000 in reaction to reports that Persoon’s team last week improved a $100,000 offer to $130,000 to fight the Bray woman.
