Chantelle Cameron says she's "more than happy to accept" Katie Taylor's challenge after the Bray boxer called the undisputed light welterweight world champion out for a fight.
With her rematch against Amanda Serrano off due to an injury sustained by the Puerto Rican, Taylor posed the challenge to Cameron on Thursday evening.
The fight against Serrano, slated for May 20th at the 3Arena in Dublin, was due to be Taylor's first professional bout in Ireland.

"Let’s get it done @EddieHearn, this homecoming has waited long enough!" Taylor, the undisputed lightweight world champion, posted on Instagram.
"@3arenadublin is available so let’s give Ireland a night to remember on May 20th. Let’s go @chancam91, happy to move up in weight for the opportunity to become a two weight Undisputed champ."
English fighter Cameron, 17-0 in her career, responded to Taylor on Thursday evening.
"I’m more than happy to accept!!" she said.
"Like you, I only want to fight the best. I'm not difficult to deal with so this fight can be signed, sealed and delivered in 24hours. @daznboxing @matchroomboxing @jamiemoore777 @franksmith @eddiehearn Let's go!"
Cameron had been suggested as a possible replacement opponent for Serrano earlier in the week, but appeared to rule herself out, saying "Would be an honour to share the ring with the very best in boxing and challenge. Unfortunately it ain't happening next for me but what a fight it would be."
The 31-year-old Cameron became undisputed light welterweight champion when she defeated Jessica McCaskill by unanimous decision in November.
