Katie Taylor offered 'unbelievable fight' by rival fighter's trainer

Chantelle Cameron's coach had Katie Taylor on his mind as he spoke about what lies in the future for the newly crowned Undisputed Light-Welterweight Champion.

Cameron outclassed former 140lb queen Jessica McCaskill in the early hours of the morning in Abu Dhabi. The 31-year-old dominated from start to finish and picked up the comfortable win on all three of the judge's scorecards.

Immediately after the bout, Cameron and her coach Jamie Moore chatted to DAZN about who might be next up for the Northampton native. Two names immediately came to mind: A rematch with McCaskill for the Welterweight crown at 147 lbs, or a drop-down in weight to face Ireland's Lightweight champion Katie Taylor.

"I think it's a great idea moving up and becoming undisputed at two different weights," began Moore, "Now you're sort of top of the mountain, where do you go from here?"

"You've got to go for bigger challenges and obviously Jessica McCaskill's got to rest up now and I'd want that fight for Chantelle.

"She's building a legacy for herself now, and for a long time she's wanted a fight like a Katie Taylor fight"

"She's in that argument now. There's no denying that Katie Taylor vs Chantelle Cameron, Undisputed vs Undisputed is an unbelievable fight."

'The Bray Bomber' isn't expected to return to the ring much before the middle of next year. And with a potential Croke Park date being lined up, and Undisputed vs Undisputed contest would surely sell plenty of tickets.
