A proper training camp, support from a sellout crowd and fuel from all the doubters. That was the recipe for Katie Taylor’s stunning success on Saturday night.

Taylor overcame Briton Chantelle Cameron on a majority decision in a blockbuster light-welterweight title fight in Dublin. One judge scored it a draw, while the other two were 98-92, 96-94 for Taylor.
