We are taking an exciting trip to the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland, to witness a killer fight card unfolding. The venue will host a 9-bouts fight card that includes not 3… not 5… but 6 Title clashes!
Besides all the other title clashes, our focus here is on the event headliner, which is the Rematch between Chantelle Cameron and Katie Taylor, with the Undisputed Female Super Lightweight Title on the Line.
Their first meeting took place on May 5th of this same year, and that contest held Chantelle Cameron as the winner via majority decision, breaking Taylor’s undefeated streak.
Now, half a year later, we get the rematch, in which the Irish fighter is looking to return the favor as she takes the English Champion’s title in the process.
When:
Saturday, November 25, 2:00 pm ET at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland
Ring walks time:
(Estimated) 5:30 pm ET
Moneyline odds:
Chantelle Cameron -200
Katie Taylor +150
Where To Watch:
Why Bet on Chantelle Cameron?
On May 20, the unbeaten Cameron produced a career-best performance to win a 10-round majority decision over Taylor at the 3Arena. Almost immediately, the vanquished lightweight champ activated a rematch clause, and here we are.
The defending champion is preparing diligently in Jamie Moore’s Manchester gym and looks to double up on her most famous victory and add to her legacy.
Cameron, 32, is a terrific fighter. The Northampton-born champ has excellent feet, a head-snapping jab, and she sucks the wind out of opponents with a pulverizing body attack.
Why Bet on Katie Taylor?
The Irish heroine now gets another chance on home soil to become a two-weight undisputed champion, but she goes into this fight as the underdog after that defeat in May, in what was her first professional fight in Ireland.
Taylor has been through the wars as a pro. Delfine Persoon gave her a lot of trouble, and so did Amanda Serrano. She arguably could have lost both fights on the cards. Natasha Jonas was a handful too.
However, Katie is ready to give it her all to avenge her only loss so far.
Final Betting Analysis: Chantelle Cameron vs. Katie Taylor
As great a fighter as Katie Taylor is, I can’t see her turning this around. While the queen of the lightweights had her moments against Cameron, they were few and far between. In general, the kind of energy a 37-year-old Taylor requires to hold off a rampaging pressure fighter is probably not there now.
As well as having Cameron’s quality to deal with, Taylor is the naturally smaller fighter in this matchup. By the midway point of fight one, the punches she did land were bouncing off Cameron, who walked through the incoming with disdain.
The decision in the first fight was uncomfortably close, so we guess Cameron will be fiercely determined to end this rematch inside the distance. This combined with Taylor’s warrior mentality leads us to believe that the judges will have a night off.
Taylor will give everything in the pursuit of revenge, but her bravery will be her undoing. We’ll go for a KO in the 8th round.
Go for a victory for the champion at -200. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $50 for a total payout of $150.
