Katie Taylor: Odds & Lines For Next Boxing Fight

Boxing star Katie Taylor looks to be a two-weight world champion inside the ring.

Taylor, a 36-year-old from Ireland, takes on undisputed Super-Lightweight World Champion Chantelle Cameron in a historic fight at the 3Arena in Dublin. 

The high-stakes bout takes place on Saturday, May 20, with fans able to watch the action on the streaming service DAZN. It’s a can’t miss event for boxing enthusiasts.

Taylor is a juggernaut with a perfect 22-0 professional record. Six of those wins came via knockout. The upcoming fight will be her first professional bout in her home country.

Boxing betting sites have Taylor as around a -175 moneyline odds favorite, with Cameron at +140. You’d have to risk $175 to win $100 on Taylor, while you’d win $140 in profit if you bet $100 on her opponent. However, you can bet other amounts besides $100 as well.

Prices on Taylor and her British opponent can vary based on sportsbook.

Taylor is a clear-cut favorite, but Cameron is what is commonly called a “live underdog.” Due to the relatively close odds, you shouldn’t be shocked if Cameron wins.

As mentioned, prices can vary based on sportsbook, and we encourage you to look at different lines at online betting sites that are licensed in your state. However, price shopping can be time intensive.

Does Katie Taylor Have an Olympic Gold Medal?

Taylor is an Olympic champion. She took gold at the 2012 London Games, which propelled her to boxing stardom. Taylor was just 26 years old when she beat Russia’s Sofya Ochigava in the Lightweight boxing final at the Olympics. That victory was her only Olympic gold medal.

Is Katie Taylor the Best Female Fighter in the World?

The case can be made that Taylor is one of the greatest fighters in all of boxing.

In a legendary match with Amanda Serrano in April 2022, Serrano secured a narrow victory. The fight was a barnburner with both women trading heavy blows late in the war. The bout was at Madison Square Garden in New York City, making it the first women’s boxing match to headline MSG.

Despite being a slight betting odds underdog, Taylor retained her Undisputed Lightweight World Title belts. Taylor was +125 coming into the fight with Serrano closing at -140.

Since the fight was so competitive, Taylor and Serrano are eyeing a rematch. Unfortunately, Serrano had to hold off on the fight due to injury. Taylor vs. Serrano 2 should happen eventually. As a result, England’s Cameron (17-0, 8 KOs) gets a shot at Taylor in the meantime.

“Once Serrano pulled out, this was the natural fight to make,” Taylor said in a statement. “It’s two undefeated, reigning Undisputed World Champions going up against each other, and I believe that’s the first time that’s ever happened in the sport’s modern era.

“People have been talking about this fight for a long time, so I’m delighted it’s happening and I’m looking forward to becoming a two-weight Undisputed Champion in Dublin on May 20.”
