00:00All eyes will be on the boxing as Katie Taylor takes on Flora Pilly in what is being described as
00:08one of the biggest female boxing matches in decades.
00:12Eddie Hearn has hailed Katie Taylor as Ireland's greatest living sports person.
00:17Here is what the promoter had to say ahead of the event.
00:22You will never be part of this, anything like this, ever again. So good luck to team Flora Pilly.
00:32And by the way, I say that with respect because not that we're definitely going to win, but because nothing
00:40like this will happen again.
00:42Nothing like this will ever happen again. And I say the same thing to Katie.
00:47You will never be part of anything like this again. To Katie, what can I say?
00:53The build up to this event has been incredible. Alex Haynes, our content team,
00:58they've captured the true emotion of what this means to everybody.
01:03And I've thanked everybody up here, but the people that we really need to thank right now are the people
01:10of Ireland.
01:11And the people that have made this possible.
01:14The people that have supported Katie Taylor her entire career.
01:19And the people that have made Saturday night possible by coming out and to support.
01:25And as much as this is Katie Taylor's night on Saturday, this is your night as well.
01:31Your night as a country where you can celebrate Ireland.
01:35And you can celebrate what I think by now we all acknowledge as the greatest Irish sports person of all
01:42time in Katie Taylor.
