Undisputed Junior Welterweight Champion

Tonight’s rematch Undisputed Junior Welterweight redemption showdown between Undisputed Junior Welterweight IBF/IBO/WBA/WBC/WBO/Ring Magazine Champion Chantelle Cameron (18-1, 8 Kos) and Undisputed Lightweight IBF/WBA/WBC/WBO/Ring Magazine Champion Katie Taylor (23-1, 6 Kos) was exactly the redemption that Katie was looking to bring her fans in attendance at 3Arena, Dublin, Ireland.

Both combatants came into this bout with the utmost confidence but it was Katie who has carried a chip on her shoulders for the past six months coming from a loss and fought like someone who needed to unleash havoc on her opponent of the night.

Both warriors threw heavy leather at each other right from the jump and did not stop giving each other time to breath which made the action inside that squared circle that much more interesting round by round.

Katie’s aggression this time around was key as she constantly kept her hands going and landing punches with combination that kept Chantelle on her toes but did not deter the champion from throwing her own heavy shots during the exchanges.

Chantelle showed her power early by dropping Katie clean but the referee at hand ruled it a slip which I personally think was the wrong call and may had caused Chantelle to lose focus for the remainder of the bout as the referee continuously ignored the constant head butting and holding that Katie was doing throughout the bout.

Chantelle did good work and kept the fight close but seemed distracted by the way the referee was calling the fight. That being said, Katie bit down on her gum shield and fought toe to toe and accepted every advantage going her way and executed her “game plan” round by round.

Things got rough and ugly inside that squared circle but both combatants put on a hell of a show. After 10 full rounds of nonstop action the Judges at hand called it 98-92 and 96-94 for Taylor while the third Judge had a draw 95-95 giving Katie the majority decision.

Katie, who came into this bout as the underdog for the first time, took charge and never wavered when the going got tough and gave out an amazing winning performance in front of her adoring fans to now being called a two weight Undisputed Champion by snatching away the Junior Welterweight IBF/IBO/WBA/WBC/WBO/Ring Magazine titles from Chantelle Camron. Unbelievable.

Katie showed up tonight and redeemed herself on the same grounds where she took her first loss and for that I tip my “B” hat to Taylor. Congratulations Katie on becoming the New Junior Welterweight IBF/IBO/WBA/WBC/WBO/Ring Magazine Champion of the World.
