That would be such a world-billing event that we would be able to facilitate a Katie Taylor fight here," he said."A lot of stars need to align. Katie's manager needs to agree, Katie's promoter needs to agree, Tyson Fury's promoter needs to agree."I am very confident that all three are coming to the sense that this is one of Ireland's greatest sporting athletes and it would be such a 'wow' to have her here and for her to finish her career here."Fury unlikely to be world champion again - WardleyPublished4 hours agoFury wants to face Joshua...
