Katie Taylor's rematch with Chantelle Cameron likely for Dublin in November

Eddie Hearn reveals plans for ‘a really big card’ stacked with Irish talent on 25 November in the 3Arena.

KATIE TAYLOR’S HUGELY-ANTICIPATED rematch with Chantelle Cameron is likely to take place in November — with Taylor set to win the battle for home advantage.

Promoter Eddie Hearn has confirmed that Saturday 25 November in Dublin’s 3Arena is the “working date” for the rematch as Taylor looks to avenge her only professional defeat to date.

The Bray superstar’s long-awaited homecoming in May was spoiled when Cameron scored a majority decision to unify the super-lightweight division.

Taylor immediately pledged to activate the rematch clause in the fight contract, although it had been thought that a second fight could take place on home soil for Cameron in England.

Speaking to International Boxing News, Hearn confirmed that discussions are underway for “a really big card” stacked with Irish talent on 25 November.

The potential bouts include a rematch for Kildare’s Gary Cully, who was stopped quickly by Jose Felix Jr on the first Taylor-Cameron card, as well as a meeting between unbeaten Belfast talent Caoimhín Agyarko and former British champion Troy Williamson.

Paddy Donovan and Thomas Carty, both of whom fought and won on the May card, are also being lined up by Hearn for November.

    @ AC sour grapes much!!! For sure Cork have problems at the moment but who dosent?? but their are signs in Cork that the development squads are coming good, last years minor hurlers and footballers were extremely unlucky not to progress out of Munster at least, It might take a few years but things are set to improove.Its fair to say that kerry might have problems of their own if ye cared to look a bit closer no All-Ireland senior club title in years, only two Minor titles in years and two senior All-irelands since 07 that they shouldnt and did not deserve to win, and now no Muns U21 title since 2008 and tonights loss casts a doubt about some of these highly rated players in kerry and remember limerick and Tipp ran them close in yer own backyard too so maybe they are not as good as ye would like to think.

    Cork may be wining the last number of years titles but the reality is that cork gaa is in a sad state. Mr Frankie bowel has absolutely ruined and destroyed Cork gaa to the point that he is a total and utter sole responsibility for cork GAA. #shameonyoumurphy

    Murphy seems to get the blame for all corks ills, easy to pin the blame on him I suppose, not a problem when he’s getting a player off on some long forgotten technicality though

    Who exactly did he “get off” Anthony ??It seems a myth has grown around Frank murphy over the years if you have inside info on the players frank got off up in kilkenny maybe you tell us all.

    Alas no inside line, but it’s laughable that all the ills of cork GAA are placed at frank murphys feet
