Wow. Katie Taylor wins her first pro fight with a brilliant performance against a clearly inferior opponent in Karina Kopinska in London.
Taylor won the two opening rounds before the fight was stopped in the third. She said after that she intended fighting for a world title next year.
And the reaction to her victory was one of delight.
That left hook to the body left to the head 👌🏻@KatieTaylor beautiful 🇮🇪

Katie Taylor proves you don't need tatts to be a top boxer. She looked like a woman freed tonight, relaxed, unloading, crazy speed, combos

Job done for Katie Taylor, very easy. I don't think Karina Kaplinska should have been allowed in a ring with Katie Taylor

Is Katie not getting a pro nickname? The Icon?

That went as expected.

We can all breathe now. But was it ever in doubt?
