In her very first expert fight on house soil in Ireland, Katie Taylor was beat by Chantelle Cameron in a carefully objected to match. Originally set to fight Amanda Serrano in a much expected rematch, Taylor rather dealt with Cameron after Serrano continual injuries in her previous fight. Despite Taylor’s tries to go up in weight and end up being a two-division indisputable champ, Cameron’s larger size and aggressive technique saw her win 2 of the 3 main scorecards. Taylor resisted with jabs and body shots, however Cameron’s consistent pressure and strong hooks to the body eventually won her the match. Despite suffering her very first expert loss and losing her homecoming, Taylor took it in stride and instantly revealed a rematch. Promoter Eddie Hearn validated a rematch provision in the agreement and the 2 females will run it back later on in the year in Dublin.
