Tyson also revealed that in addition to his fight with Jake Paul this summer, fans will also see a highly anticipated rematch between two of the best female boxers in the world today.

Irish star Katie Taylor, who currently reigns as the undisputed lightweight and super lightweight world champion, will put the latter on the line when she runs back her 2022 classic with Puerto Rican sensation Amanda Serrano.

“We have the biggest female boxing event ever on our card,” Tyson wrote on X. “I have always advocated for female boxers getting more recognition and getting paid bigger purses, so for the Taylor vs Serrano 2 fight to be on our fight card is historic.”

Taylor and Serrano’s inaugural meeting was the first women’s boxing match to headline Madison Square Garden and was highly regarded as the biggest women’s fight of all time. It was dubbed Fight of the Year by Sports Illustrated and Event of the Year by The Ring.

Conor McGregor was pelted in the head with a flying beer while Irish boxing star Katie Taylor was suffering her first career loss inside the squared circle.

The former two-division UFC champion was in attendance at Dublin’s 3Arena on May 20 for Katie Taylor’s first fight in her home country. The undisputed female lightweight world champion was looking to conquer her second division, challenging undisputed light-welterweight champion Chantelle Cameron. Taylor came up short, dropping a majority decision in what would be her first career loss.

Conor McGregor, who was on hand for the event, was clearly dejected by Taylor’s defeat. Adding insult to injury, the Irishman appeared to have been nailed by a beer moments after the decision was announced.

Conor McGregor Did Not Agree with the Judges

Following the fight, McGregor revealed that he was in disagreement with the judges, suggesting the bout was a draw.

“Great fight, close fight, I had it a draw,” McGregor told reporters. “She went up in weight at the drop of a hat. She was scheduled for one different style of opponent at a specific weight and that fell through. “So last minute what does Katie do? The warrior that’s in her? She gave me something to aspire to! She wanted to go up in weight and fight the champion in the heavier weight at the drop of a hat.

“Give her a chance to do it at Croke Park, for sure Croke Park is on. It was a close bout, the size was prevalent, but Katie is a tactician, give Katie another bash at that.”

Conor McGregor will make his long-awaited return to television this Tuesday night as The Ultimate Fighter season 31 premieres on ESPN. The Notorious’ will coach opposite former Bellator MMA champion ‘Iron’ Michael Chandler as the two men march toward an inevitable clash inside the Octagon later this year.

Conor McGregor distraught following Katie Taylor loss in homecoming title fight

Global phenomenon Conor McGregor has been captured on film in the moments that Katie Taylor tasted defeat for the first time in her career.

Taylor, previously unblemished as a professional, took on Chantelle Cameron at light welterweight, aiming to secure titles in the division she last fought in 2019. Ultimately though, the Brit Cameron secured two of the judge’s scorecards, whilst one scored it a draw between the pair.

Conor McGregor is well-known to be one of Katie Taylor’s biggest supporters, and although trying to maintain a positive demeanor, you could see in his eyes that he hurt for his friend and compatriot Taylor, who he often cites as an inspiration of his.

Such a big supporter fact, that the former two-weight champion of the world sponsored the event through his whiskey brand Proper 12, and met with Taylor’s promoter, and head honcho of Matchroom Boxing, Eddie Hearn, to make sure his countrywoman was ensured to compete for a Dublin crowd at least once in her illustrious career.

Watch: Conor McGregor’s reaction to Taylor’s loss

Conor McGregor is one of the more animated fight watchers on the planet. Often spotted shadowboxing or appearing to have an invisible, bucking animal beneath him while he enjoys taking in the evening combat, McGregor appeared much nervier this time out in a video posted on TheMacLife YouTube channel.

Following the disappointing verdict for the Irishman, he was full of nothing but encouragement for Taylor, stating:

“Another amazing fight for you,” McGregor could be heard saying to Taylor. “Another day, another day for Katie Tay. Love you to bits, I love you.”

Next up for “Notorious” looks to be a blockbuster affair with Michael Chandler, although exactly when appears up in the air, following the filming of the upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter.

Do you think Katie Taylor wins the rematch?

Forced to fight on the back foot time and time again by English champion, Cameron, who had previously suffered a loss to Taylor during their respective amateur careers — Bray native, Taylor was made play counter from the corners of the ring and ropes to boot.

Former undisputed UFC lightweight and featherweight champion, Conor McGregor has offered to foot a reported €500,000 security bill which had held up an expected Ireland homecoming fight for undisputed and undefeated boxing world champion, Katie Taylor, which has scuppered a rematch against Puerto Rico puncher, Amanda Serrano. 

McGregor, a former undisputed UFC lightweight and featherweight titleholder, has yet to return to active competition since July 2021, headlining UFC 264 in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss against Dustin Poirier, fracturing his left tibia and fibula.

Yet to return to the Octagon since, the Crumlin native has, however, been booked to feature as an opposing coach on The Ultimate Fighter 31 which premieres on May 30. next – coaching opposite the current #5 ranked lightweight contender, Michael Chandler. 

As for Taylor, the Bray native and Olympic gold medalist puncher, headlined at Madison Square Garden back in April of last year against the above-mentioned, Serrano, scoring a close, split decision win over 10 rounds in a memorable and heralded matchup. 

Returning to the squared circle in October last, Taylor moved to 22-0 as a professional with a decision win over Karen Carabajal. 

Expected to make an Irish homecoming later this year in a potential rematch against Serrano in the capital at Croke Park, Taylor’s return to home soil has hit the skids recently, with Matchroom Boxing promoter, Eddie Hearn claiming a €500,000 security bill may prevent the pairing from taking place at the GAA venue. 

Weighing up potential venues including the Aviva Stadium and the 3Arena in Dublin, Taylor’s homecoming has been offered a lifeline by McGregor, who offered to pay €500,000 in order to help relieve the security issue at Croke Park.

“The extra security bill is 500k to have Katie Taylor fight at Croke Park?” Conor McGregor tweeted. “I will sponsor the event to see this happen.”

“What’s the craic lad,” Conor McGregor tweeted in reply to the aforenoted, Eddie Hearn. “Give me the current landscape. I’m in. Is this doable still? Or is it a double show, the point (3Arena) first with Croke Park later in year, post the GAA season? I’m in either way. She (Katie Taylor) better be getting her worth for this also.”
