Katie Taylor will defend her undisputed lightweight world title against Liverpool's Natasha Jonas on Saturday night with the Bray Bomber already backed into red-hot favouritism.



The two former amateurs last squared off in the quarter-finals at London 2012, where Taylor was crowned victorious and is odds-on for another win this weekend.

Since becoming a pro in 2016, the Irish superstar has racked up 17 straight wins and has claimed world titles in two separate weight divisions

and her odds have tumbled into 2/9 from 1/3 to continue her dominance.""



Jonas has just one defeat on her 11-fight record and despite that impressive statistic, the Liverpool native is 7/2 ahead of her latest showdown with Taylor.

The Irish athlete is also fancied to win the fight on points with those chances backed into 4/7 from 4/6, while a draw is available at 12/1.

Another popular market with fans of the Wicklow native is to win the fight in Round 7, with those odds cut into 20/1 from 25/1.
