Katie Taylor’s career was soaked in blood, tears and triumph.
The Irishwoman has stepped away from the sport aged 40 after 27 fights and 26 wins after a memorable night at Dublin’s Croke Park.
Making her amateur debut in 2001, Taylor won every medal and title she could have and more importantly had a lasting effect on women’s boxing and women as athletes.
