The stage is set for a historic night in GAA headquarters as Katie Taylor headlines her final professional boxing match. She will be defending her WBO, WBA, IBF, and Ring Magazine titles while also squaring off for the vacant WBC super lightweight championship.

Schedule, Ringwalk Time & TV Broadcast

Taylor and Pili are expected to make their highly anticipated ringwalk around 10.10pm, though timings remain subject to change depending on how the undercard bouts progress.

For fans watching from home in Ireland, the entire event will be broadcast free-to-air on RTÉ2, with live coverage running from 8pm to 11.30pm. Viewers located in Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK can catch the action on DAZN, and live text coverage will also be available via The Irish Times live blog.

The Undercard Lineup

Supporting the main event is a packed and competitive undercard featuring some explosive matchups:

• Paddy Donovan v Tyrone McKenna – Welterweight
• Taylor Bevan v Emmet Brennan – Super-middleweight
• Joe McGrail v Matthew Boreland – Super-bantamweight
• Dave Allen v Thomas Cartey – Heavyweight
• Molly McCann v Sylwia Doligala – Bantamweight

Ticket Status & Fight Week Events

General sale tickets for the 82,000-capacity stadium famously sold out within just 30 minutes when released back in June. While a limited batch of additional tickets was made available in early August—with remaining pitchside seats priced at €766 each—initial sale tickets ranged from €38.70 alongside family tickets priced at €125.50.

Ahead of Saturday night, fans can catch fight week events starting with a face-to-face meeting between Taylor and Pili on Tuesday at The Helix on the DCU campus, followed by an open workout at the same venue on Wednesday, and the official public weigh-in at Trinity College on Friday.

Assessing the Challenger: Flora Pili

This will be far from an easy night’s work against the French visitor. Pili is 11 years younger than Taylor and boasts an unbeaten record across her 12 professional fights so far. Having captured the IBO super lightweight championship, she enters the ring ranked second in the weight division behind Taylor by both the WBC and IBF, making this her highest-profile bout to date.

A Rare Night at Croke Park

Professional boxing at Croke Park remains a rare spectacle. Taylor joins truly legendary company by following in the footsteps of Muhammad Ali, who travelled to Croker to fight Alvin ‘Blue’ Lewis in July 1972. That historic summer night famously turned into a financial and logistical disaster when just 18,725 tickets were sold out of a targeted 30,000, a far cry from the packed 82,000 sellout crowd awaiting Taylor this weekend.
