If it wasn't already blatantly obvious, she is confirmed as the greatest athlete Ireland has ever produced. What a win! Amazing. Such heart she showed.

What is the standard though? It's a bit like womens rugby

Agreed.

Agreed.

Yeah depends on what the comparisons are. Are you comparing along side the likes of Roy Keane Liam Brady and George Best? Or individaul sports?  Sean Kelly . If you don't break a sweat it's it's game not a sport sorry golf and snooker.

Well done Katie. Irelands greatest for sure.
Delighted for her.!

[Tony Baloney]

Well done Katie. Irelands greatest female boxer for sure.
Delighted for her.!

Definitely.

Ireland greatest Irish woman boxer. If Katie wasn't boxing how many people will watch it from here?

Btw I think she's amazing but I'm not convinced on the sport being recognised as top class. I watched more of the Irish ladies rugby last night than I did of Katie's fight

[Cunny Funt]

Well done Katie a special talent. Hopefully the rematch in Croke Park goes ahead, what an occasion that would be.

[Captain Scarlet]

Ah they have to bring her home to Croke Park.
You'd be looking at over 80,000 and a massive payday for her.

It's a defining moment in woman's sport though. She's done a special thing and will go down in history. Great ever Irish sports person? I'm not so sure but she's definitely up there as the most influential ever.

I agree, and would be great if she was making good money to show for her efforts

[nrico2006]

Strange that she still hasn't went for the McCaskill rematch with the chance to be undisputed in two weights.
