Taylor Gets Her Final Scale Moment Before Croke Park The weigh-in kept the main event clean after a week built around Taylor closing her professional boxing run at home. The 40-year-old has already gone through massive nights with Amanda Serrano and Chantelle Cameron, and her Croke Park fight arrives during a busy stretch for women’s boxing that also includes Chantelle Cameron taking Mikaela Mayer’s belts. Pili gets the spoiler role with an unbeaten record and a size look across from Taylor on fight week. The card also gives former UFC standout Molly McCann another boxing assignment after her stoppage win in her professional boxing debut, but Saturday’s main event is built around Taylor trying to leave the sport with every belt in front of an Irish crowd.
