Katie Taylor will defend her WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring lightweight titles against Argentina's Karen Elizabeth Carabajal, at the SSE Arena in London this evening.

The venue is also the site of Taylor's first professional bout, where in 2016 she defeated Karina Kopinska via TKO.

32-year-old Carabajal is 11th in BoxRec's lightweight rankings, and is undefeated in her 19 pro fights.

Taylor still goes in as heavy favourite (1/33 to win), in a relatively low-key bout, sandwiched between her groundbreaking fight with Amanda Serrano at Madison Square Gardens, and a possible Croke Park homecoming fight in the near future.

What Time Is The Katie Taylor Fight ?

The fight card is scheduled to get underway at 6 p.m., with Taylor and Carabajal due to take to the ring around 9.30 p.m., but the fight could begin as late as 10.30 p.m.

What Is Katie Taylor Saying Heading Into The Fight?

Katie Taylor speaking yesterday about making her pro debut in the same arena, and discusses tonight's fight:

I just remember the ring walk and the atmosphere and I guess the excitement of making my pro debut. You only ever have one pro debut so I’m very thankful it was a great one. It was an amazing start to my professional career.

I am sure I was a little bit (nervous) as I am before every single fight. But I think I was more excited than I ever had been. It was an amazing start.

These past six years have probably been the most amazing of my whole career both as an amateur and professional. It is great to be stepping back in there tomorrow night. I am excited to show what I can do.
