Katie Taylor will finally get to fight on Irish soil as she takes on Chantelle Cameron this Saturday at the 3Arena in Dublin.
Despite turning pro shortly after the 2016 Olympics, Taylor has never fought in her home country but will make her dream a reality this weekend.
Standing in her way is the formidable Chantelle Cameron, with the Nottingham boxer boasting a perfect 17-0 record.

And although Taylor may be bookmaker's favourite, many believe she will be up against it on Saturday night.
At the age of 36, Taylor is certainly in the twilight of her career and will be eyeing up a couple of big paydays.
The Bray fighter was reportedly worth in and around the €2m mark in 2022 with that figure believed to have skyrocketed after her May 2022 fight against Amanda Serrano in New York.
World champion Taylor was said to have earned a seven-figure fee for her blockbuster fight against Serrano and could be set to earn a similar figure when she takes to the ring this weekend.
According to Betfair, Taylor is priced at a remarkable 4/7 with her opponent a 7/5 outsider and a draw at 14/1.
