Katie Taylor donates boxing gloves to charity

Katie Taylor has landed a knockout blow to motor neurone disease by donating her gloves to charity.

The boxer is backing a new initiative, Watch Your Back MND, set up by Roy Taylor and his son Terence.

Roy was a well-known singer and represented Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1988 with Jump The Gun.

He said: “I could have rolled into a ball or rolled up my sleeves to do something about it and the latter is what I decided to do.”
