In the lead-up to their world title clash at Dublin’s 3Arena, both Katie Taylor and Chantelle Cameron successfully made weight. The Englishwoman, defending her light-welterweight belts, slightly edged the scales at a fraction over 9st 3lb, with hometown favorite Taylor registering a hair heavier. The atmosphere at The Helix in Dublin City University crackled with nervous energy as the fighters, despite the high stakes, engaged in a cordial face-off, setting the stage for what promises to be a compelling showdown on Saturday night.
Having dealt Taylor her inaugural professional defeat in May, Cameron, the undisputed super-lightweight champion, is ready to repeat history again in Dublin. Or so are the predictions that fans are making.

The weigh-in on Friday unfolded amidst the tumult of violence in Dublin following a stabbing incident involving three children and a woman on Parnell Square East. Located just outside the city center, the DCU campus witnessed the event, a mere 20-minute drive from the overnight riots. Despite the unrest, the public weigh-in, attended by university students, proceeded as scheduled.
Matchroom boss Eddie Hearn assured that Saturday’s fight at the 3Arena faced no threat, emphasizing that Irish authorities had not expressed concerns. Hearn expressed hope for a calming period before the fight, highlighting its significance for both boxing and Irish icon Katie Taylor.
