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.”

Bellator Women’s Featherweight Champion Cris Cyborg could be on her way to making her boxing debut against the pound-for-pound No. 1 women’s boxer.
According to Sports Illustrated, negotiations are underway for a boxing match in December between Cyborg and the 21-0 Katie Taylor. After the potential fight with Cyborg, Taylor could face a rematch against Amanda Serrano of their fight from earlier this year.
A formal fight announcement could come in the near future.
Cyborg, following a tumultuous tenure with the UFC, earned the Bellator featherweight title over Julia Budd at Bellator 238. She has gone on to successfully defend her title against Leslie Smith, Sinead Kavanagh, and most recently Arlene Blencowe.
Cyborg earned the UFC’s vacant featherweight title back at UFC 214 in 2017. She ended up being at odds with UFC President Dana White and the brass over her alleged mistreatment and ended up signing with Bellator in free agency.
Cyborg has never competed in the boxing ring but does have a 2-1 record in Muay Thai kickboxing.
Taylor most recently outlasted Serrano in an all-time classic back in April. She holds the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring female lightweight titles.
Taylor expressed interest in a crossover fight with Cyborg, among others, back in December. She’s also hinted at a potential future fight against former UFC champion and boxing Hall of Famer Holly Holm.
Cyborg could potentially defend her title against Cat Zingano later this year if Zingano earns a win this weekend at Bellator 282. It’s unclear if her next Bellator fight will take place before or after the planned Taylor matchup.
