When did Rory become a her?
Bannside said anybody - that covers he, she and them other ones.

Ah sure lads it was a great wee night although I did struggle with Bono's shite, that did test my resolve.

French girl only really threw anything of note in the 7th round, maybe a draw in a few others rounds.

Eddie Hearn was crying all the way to the bank.
Wondering if he took the opportunity to visit his mate in the Joy while he was in Dublin?

What sorta dough is Katie pocketing?

From the Bunker

Katie Taylor is estimated to have earned a minimum guaranteed purse of €3 million (£2.5 million / $3.5 million) for her victory over Flora Pili at Croke Park.

There are supposed to be add ons from sponsors that could bring it up to €4m.

Flora Pili got €900,000

The taxman will get his taste but still not bad for a night's work. Presumably she can now use her Sportsperson's Relief as she has retired which will amount to a tidy sum.

According to the Irish Times she is worth €20 million.

The likes of Semple could fulfil any particular GAA requirements after the Croker rebrand.

I'd say our weather would put a stop to that lol
Exactly. Had it been last sat night it wouldve been miserable.

Aviva (Landsdowne) a better venue - tighter and everyone is closer to the action. Easier to sell out with the smaller attendance.

It was pretty obvious to everyone except Captain Obvious that he said anybody.

Admittedly I was wrong when I said she wouldn't sell out last night, but this was as much a farewell to Katie (Westlife ffs) as a boxing event. About 100 were in for the first bouts.

It was a once off, won't be done again.
