Katie Taylor gets back in the ring this weekend as she faces Delfine Persoon in an eagerly anticipated rematch in Brentwood Essex.
The undisputed lightweight queen defends her belts against the Belgian on English soil after winning the first bout between them via a controversial decision at Madison Square Garden in June, 2019.
Persoon was furious with that decision, with her and many others feeling as though it should have been her hand that was raised in victory.
Taylor has been training in Connecticut for the past few months and was scheduled to face Amanda Serrano, but that fight didn't come to fruition due to a disagreement over prize money.
Taylor vs Persoon 2 comes on the undercard of the heavyweight bout between Dillian Whyte and Alexander Povetkin.
