Undefeated Katie Taylor will put her world titles on the line again this weekend when she takes on Argentine ace Karen Elizabeth Carabajal.
Taylor claimed a split decision win over Amanda Serrano in April in a huge showdown for women’s boxing at Madison Square Garden.
Now the Bray Bomber will look to take her professional record to 22 straight victories against Carabajal.
The 32-year-old from Buenos Aires is also unbeaten with 19 wins to her name.
She beat Lorena Edith Agoutborde late time out but has never faced anyone of Taylor’s quality.

Taylor vs Carabajal: What’s been said?
Taylor made her debut at Wembley Arena in November 2016, seeing off Karina Kopinska.
She said: “It’s hard to believe it’s been almost six years since I made my pro debut there so it’s great to go back now and headline.
“It’s been an amazing journey so far but there are still lots of great fights out there for me and I’m excited about what’s still to come.”
Carabajal said: “I was very happy when I received the offer to challenge Katie.
“The hard work has paid off. I’m not thinking for a second about giving Katie a win. All the belts will come back to Argentina with me.”
Hearn has revealed how Taylor feels about all-female fight cards after BOXXER’s recent bill at the O2 Arena in London.
“It was about two years ago and DAZN came to us and said, ‘We’d like to headline Katie Taylor on International Women’s Day with a full female card,” Hearn told talkSPORT Breakfast on Wednesday.
“I was really excited. I thought, ‘Wow, that would be incredible for Katie and the sport. I went and sat down with her, and she looked at me like she was going to knock me out.”
