Katie Taylor vs. Chantelle Cameron: Preview, Prediction & Betting Odds

On Saturday, DAZN will stream a card headlined by two undisputed champions in different weight classes; each is looking to make a statement. Undisputed lightweight champion Katie Taylor (22-0, 6 KOs) will be moving up in weight to face the super lightweight champion Chantelle Cameron (17-0, 8 KOs) for her undisputed crown. This fight is intriguing on so many levels, and for both women, this is an opportunity to shine under the brightest lights.

A HOMECOMING FIT FOR A QUEEN

This event on Saturday is being billed as the homecoming for the undisputed lightweight champion Taylor. Undoubtedly, the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland, will be rocking for their champion in Taylor. With that comes a ton of pressure to perform and not let down those in attendance or watching on DAZN. Taylor has earned this as she is a star in boxing. After a classic fight in the Madison Square Garden in NYC that will forever be remembered, Taylor looks to build upon that in hopes of making the rematch with Amanda Serrano even bigger. But let's not get ahead of ourselves, as the best-laid plans tend to get ruined when they seem too good to be true.

Taylor is 36 years old and has plenty of wear and tear, making me wonder if or when that will catch up to her. This isn’t the fight where it happens, and although Taylor is moving up in weight, she will find a way to pull out the victory, or will she? Let’s see if the moment and/or atmosphere doesn’t take up all the room's oxygen.

CAN CHANTELLE CAMERON ONCE AGAIN PLAY SPOILER?

When Cameron faced Jessica McCaskill (12-3, 5 KOs) in November, it was supposed to be a setup for McCaskill to take on Taylor on Saturday, but someone didn’t give Cameron the memo. The fight went the distance, but Cameron was too much for McCaskill that night and played spoiler for the ready-made plans of McCaskill vs. Taylor. Now Cameron has to walk into the Lion’s Den in Dublin, Ireland, to beat Taylor, which will be 99% for the undisputed lightweight champion. To win this fight, Cameron will have to do two things: throw a high volume of punches and keep the pressure on Taylor. If Cameron can do this, she can potentially pull off the decision or at least make it close enough to leave out of there with a draw. This is easier said than done as Taylor is as tough as they come but something tells me Cameron will try to prove that she is just as tough. Will we see an upset on Saturday in Dublin, Ireland?
