Katie Taylor plans retirement after farewell fight in Dublin

[Cheeky Blake]

The opponent choice will be interesting. A final fight needs someone who can make it meaningful, not just someone there to be part of the celebration.

Taylor has always competed at a high level, so I would expect the same standards for the last one.

Whatever happens, the reception afterwards might be the biggest moment of the night.

It is funny how certain athletes become part of the calendar. You get used to seeing their name every year and then suddenly the schedule looks different.

Taylor has had that kind of presence in boxing.

A final home fight is a great way to say goodbye. Hopefully younger fighters coming through can build on the foundation she helped create
