DAZN — the $4bn sports streaming service that owns the rights to Katie Taylor’s fights — has moved the possibility of a Taylor-Serrano clash in Croke Park a step closer

DAZN confirms that a record 1.5m subscriptions - across 170 markets worldwide - were sold for last Saturday night’s fight in Madison Square Garden - with more downloads of the service in Ireland than for any other sports app on IOS or Android. It is estimated that four people watch each subscription, meaning an estimated 6m viewers across 170 countries worldwide made Taylor-Serrano the most-watched female fight in history.
