Fighting fit. After confirming at the press conference that the bout was at a catchweight, Katie Taylor weighed in at 135.8 pounds at the Ventana Ballroom in the Kimpton Eventi Hotel.

Taylor’s undisputed light-welterweight title (WBC, WBA, IBF & WBO) and the Ring Magazine belt are on the line this Friday. The 140-pound titles will be contested at a 136-pound limit. The Irish woman confirmed this week that this was a stipulation in the contract.
