Chantelle Cameron vs Katie Taylor odds

  • Chantelle Cameron - (+145)
  • Katie Taylor - (-175)

Cameron has established herself as one of the best pound-for-pound boxers in the women's game with a professional record of 17-0, including eight knockouts.

Her last knockout win came against Melissa Hernandez back in 2021 with a fifth-round finish. Since then she has claimed three wins consecutively on the judges scorecards with unanimous decisions against Mary McGee, Victoria Bustos and most recently Jessica McCaskill to become the undisputed champion.

If you want to bet on the reigning champion to retain her belts you can find her at a best price of +145, meaning you will earn $145 profit for every $100 you bet making her the underdog.

She'll be standing across the ring from the electric Taylor, who has a professional record of 22-0 including six knockouts.

Taylor has won her last nine fights in a row on the judge's scorecards but she continues to be one of the most impressive fighters in the sport. Her most recent bouts have been excellent showings too, with unanimous decision wins over Jennifer Han and Firuza Sharipova.

She followed that up with a split decision win against Amanda Serrano in one of the biggest fights in women's boxing history, before another unanimous win over Karen Carabajal last time out.

If you want to back Taylor to claim all the belts moving up a division then you can get her at a best price of -175, meaning you must bet $175 to earn a $100 profit.

Chantelle Cameron vs Katie Taylor preview

Katie Taylor will finally get her long-awaited opportunity to fight on Irish soil as a professional this weekend when she faces England’s Chantelle Cameron for the undisputed title.

Taylor faces arguably one of the toughest fights of her career when she moves up in weight against Cameron looking to become a two-weight Undisputed Champion by adding the Super-Lightweight belts to the lightweight belts already in her possession, establishing herself as one of the greatest of all-time not just in the women's game.

Both women are very good technical boxers and Cameron is arguably bigger, stronger and more powerful. But she isn't better than Taylor when it comes to the movement and accuracy and that is what is likely to cost her in this bout.

Her best chance will be to keep the fight going until Taylor gets tired in the latter rounds and go for the knockout, but that's a very difficult task.

Taylor will be looking to stick and move just like she did when they fought as amateurs and she claimed the win, using her speed and technical excellence.

Boxing picks: Katie Taylor on the cards

Taylor is the best women's boxer in the world that is her size, with the only argument for anyone being better pound-for-pound being Claressa Shields.

"KT" is doing what everyone knew she was capable of doing. She's dominating the game at her weight class because of her technical excellence and she's helping to take the game to new heights.

When it comes to the skill of boxing she is far better than Cameron and as long as the fight is just a simple and traditional boxing match then she will be the victor.

She doesn't have the strength and power to really do a lot of damage to Cameron, and that should encourage the champion to push forward and turn the fight into more of a brawl so she can use her size and power to her advantage. As the fight pushes on into the latter rounds, Cameron can make that really hard for Taylor to just box by using her weight to lean on Taylor and take the technicality out of the fight.

But that is the approach of almost everyone to fight Taylor and she always finds a way to navigate it and claim the win. Even in the midst of a particularly difficult fight, the home crowd advantage will almost certainly play a part if it goes to the judges.

Taylor is world class and this will be another chapter in her legendary career, so back her to get it done on the cards once again.
