    Given your knowledge around fight purses and so on, do you think it's reasonable to say Katie has earned enough to have a nice life without needing to work? That would be a good legacy as much as anything else, I would assume most current female boxers either still have day jobs or will need them soon enough...

    MSG alone should have set Taylor up pretty well but she's been high up Matchroom cards for years.

    Bellew dares not say anything. It's embarrassing every time he opens his mouth...

    In her mind, she's already cemented it

    Nearly 37 years old stepped up a division.

    Keep taking risks like that and eventually you'll lose, ask canelo.

    Now if only fury and the heavyweight division had some of these nuts.

    Joshua and Usyk wanted the Fury fight but he ducked both.

    Fury needs to grow a pair and fight both this year.

    Ha, yeah. I totally understand the coin element.

    I just am not a fan of these "greats" who refuse to have a re-match in the other persons backyard after having had home advantage in fight #1.

    The promoter has a big say too mate. For example Hearn wouldn’t stage the Bivol-Canelo rematch in Russia over Vegas.

    Bivol v Canelo even without the war is understandable.

    Maybe it's just myself who likes to see a fair shake applied.

    The fight makes sense in Ireland as that's where the money is.

    I understand the money angle but will she get a fair shake the 2nd time around in Dublin? That is my major concern given how corrupt this sport is.

    By using the word "greats", I am talking Boxing in general.

    Sorry for any confusion.
