Katie Taylor’s determination and passion for the sport of boxing is truly inspiring. Despite her age, she continues to push the boundaries and pave the way for female fighters around the world. Her upcoming trilogy fight with Amanda Serrano is sure to be another epic battle, and fans can’t wait to see what she brings to the ring. Taylor’s legacy in the sport is already cemented, but she continues to strive for greatness in every fight she takes on. We wish her the best of luck in her upcoming bout and look forward to seeing her continued success in the boxing world.
Taylor is convinced that even at this stage of her career she can keep delivering top class performances.
I absolutely feel so great at the moment. I obviously take one fight at a time but after the last fight I knew I was ready for another one. It is about adapting and adjusting. Look at the likes of Floyd Mayweather, Bernard Hopkins, these kind of guys, their longevity’s incredible. It’s actually inspiring. I live the life. I sacrifice so much, she said.
I think I have a very smart team of people around me. We train very, very hard but also very smart as well. It’s the reason I’m in this position as well, still at the top of the game. I’m going to be 39 years of age when I step into the ring next. It’s going to be crazy. But I feel great right now and I feel better than ever.
Taylor backs Ryan in Mayer rematch
Taylor is in Las Vegas with sparring partner Sandy Ryan as the Briton goes into her rematch with Mikaela Mayer.
Mayer and Ryan fight for the WBO welterweight world championship, live on Sky Sports Action from midnight on Sunday morning.
Taylor herself is a study in how to succeed in rematches. She won her second fights with Chantelle Cameron and Delfine Persoon as well as Serrano.
For me I definitely have the ability to adjust. I’m so determined as well. When I lost to Chantelle Cameron I had the Sunday off and then I was back in the gym on Monday preparing for that rematch, Taylor said.
I think you have an extra fire in you when you suffer a loss. You just learn so much from losses as well. That’s where all the growth happens. You’re forced to sit back and think about things a bit more. I know Sandy’s that type of person as well. She has the heart of a warrior. She has an amazing mentality, an amazing mindset.
It’s whoever wants it most on Saturday night, she added. I think Sandy is just an all-round complete fighter. She’s an amazing fighter, an amazing boxer. She’s so versatile. Her jab is fantastic, her counterpunch is fantastic.
I’ve shared rounds and rounds of sparring with her. She’s a huge reason why I won the rematch against Chantelle Cameron as well. Just an amazing part of my preparation and I’m always so grateful for those rounds that she gave me.
