Katie Taylor, a revered figure in boxing, has announced her intention to retire following a farewell fight scheduled for this summer in Dublin, her hometown. At 39 years old and boasting an impressive professional record of 25 wins and just one loss, Taylor has established herself as an undisputed world super-lightweight champion and a two-weight champion after recent victories including a title match against Amanda Serrano.

Despite a setback in 2023 against Chantelle Cameron, Taylor managed to avenge that defeat later the same year, further solidifying her legendary status in the sport. As she steps away from professional boxing, Taylor has expressed her desire to conclude her career in front of her local supporters, emphasizing the significance of fighting in Dublin, a city that has closely followed her journey and achievements.

Katie's retirement plans come at a time when she is taking a break from active competition, although she has mapped out a timeline that pushes her final career bout to 2026. The news of her final fight has sparked excitement among fans in Ireland, who are eager to support their boxing hero as she embarks on this last chapter of her remarkable career.
