How Katie Taylor v Chantelle Cameron ticket prices compare to Michael Conlan's fight

After a dearth of boxing events on this island, two of Ireland's biggest names are fighting on home turf on consecutive weekends.

Not only will Katie Taylor finally get to fight on Irish soil as a professional but boxing fans will then only have to wait a week to see Michael Conlan's world title bid.

Taylor will bid to become the undisputed super lightweight world champion when she takes on Chantelle Cameron at the 3 Arena on Saturday, May 20.

It is the first time the Bray woman, 36, has fought in Ireland since his amateur days and demand is going to be sky-high for the bout.

Tickets will go on general sale on April 5 for a venue that has a capacity of close to 10,000 people for boxing events.

Prices begin at €80, with the most expensive VIP Ringside seats set to go on sale at a whopping €1,500.

In total, there are seven price bands of tickets (€80, €100, €140, €250, €500, €750 & €1,500).

The tickets are significantly more expensive than those for Michael Conlan's fight the following weekend.

Conlan, 31, will attempt to become a world champion for the second time when he faces IBF featherweight champ, Luis Alberto Lopez, at the SSE Arena in Belfast.

Prices for the fight begin at £44 (€50) and range all the way to ringside tickets for £305 (€347).

In total, there are six price bands for the fight (£44, £65, £85, £105, £205, £305).

Taylor's promoter Eddie Hearn had originally hoped to stage her homecoming fight at Croke Park in Dublin, however, negotiations with the GAA failed to reach an agreement.

Instead, the door remains open for Taylor to fight at GAA HQ later this year if overcoming Cameron at the 3 Arena.
