Katie Taylor is confident that she is still improving as she gets set to defend her undisputed lightweight title against Natasha Jonas on Saturday. The pair are primed to renew in-ring acquaintances nine years after their memorable meeting at London 2012. Taylor thrillingly triumphed in that quarter-final, eventually going on to capture gold at what was a debut Olympic Games for women’s boxing.

Since that transcendent stint within the amateur code, the Bray native has segued to a similarly peerless perch atop the pros, her blemish-free record tallying 17-0.
