Katie Taylor recent form
Taylor (25-1, 6 KOs) will be aiming to become undisputed champion for the third time by beating Pili. Since losing to Chantelle Cameron in 2023, Taylor has won three consecutive fights, including the rematch against Cameron and two fights against her arch-rival Amanda Serrano.
Flora Pili recent form
Pili (12-0, 2 KOs) comes to Croke Park as a mammoth underdog, but will be eager to cause a huge upset. Her best wins have come against Silvia Bortot and Diana Rodriguez. Last time out, she won via majority decision against Jelena Janicijevic.
Katie Taylor vs Flora Pili prediction
Pili is resilient and will pick her shots with patience, but she will have to produce a career-best performance and hope Taylor’s quality has dipped. Pili shows composure in her fights, but Taylor has competed at the top throughout her amateur and professional career. Taylor tends to bring pressure in her fights, making it difficult for her opponents to keep their form.
Taylor showed in her third fight with Serrano that she can box on the back foot when needed, picking her punches. We are expecting Taylor to start fast and bring the pressure to Pili, with the Irish fighter winning by unanimous decision.
