Eddie Hearn names the two opponents for potential Katie Taylor Croke Park event

Eddie Hearn names the two opponents for potential Katie Taylor Croke Park eventDAZN
Katie Taylor is set for a big fight next year.

Eddie Hearn has named two opponents for Katie Taylor if he can secure Croke Park for the new world champion.  

Taylor produced arguably the best performance of her career against Chantelle Cameron this past weekend to avenge the defeat she suffered against the same fighter earlier this year. 

Due to the nature of Taylor’s win, the legacy she possessed has been massively enhanced and Hearn is eager to capitalise on that and take Taylor to her country’s national stadium.  

For that event to be as big as possible, Hearn knows he needs a major name in the opposite corner, and he’s identified the two fighters he believes it should be. 

“If we’re going to Croke Park next, and we’re doing everything we can to, Chantelle Cameron is the pick for the trilogy,” said Hean when speaking at the post-fight press conference. 

“It’s really only Chantelle or Amanda Serrano. They’re the two megafights out there that Croke Park wants.”
