- Katie Taylor is the reigning number one women's pound-for-pound boxer.
- Taylor is the undisputed women's lightweight champion of the world.
- She's coming off a successful title defense against Karen Carabajal.
Irish boxing superstar Katie Taylor is fresh off her latest title defense against Karen Carabajal in their October 2022 showdown, where she lopsidedly defeated the challenger via unanimous decision. It was her 22nd career victory, and this newest triumph has proved why she is one of the constant favorites in BetMGM’s online sportsbook via the boxing odds.
