Katie Taylor didn’t just become a champion. She changed boxing forever.

She fought when women’s boxing was barely recognised, helped force open doors that had been closed, and inspired generations of young girls to believe they belonged in the ring.

🥇 6-time European Champion
🥇 5-time World Champion
🥇 5-time European Union Champion
🥇 2012 Olympic Champion
🥇 2015 European Games Champion
🏆 Undisputed Lightweight World Champion
🏆 Two-weight World Champion
🏆 Undisputed Super-Lightweight World Champion
🔥 Defeated Amanda Serrano three times
🔥 Avenged her only professional defeat
⚽ Represented Ireland in international football
🇮🇪 Defeated the unbeaten Flora Pili at Croke Park
🏆 Became undisputed world champion once again
🥊 Finished with a professional record of 26 wins and just 1 defeat

From having to pretend to be a boy just to box, to finishing her incredible career with a dominant victory in front of 80,000 people at Croke Park.

Katie Taylor didn’t follow the path. She created it.

An inspiration to every boxer, every coach and every young girl with a dream.

One of the greatest fighters of all time. 🥊🇮🇪

🥊 RESULTS DAY 📚

To everyone collecting exam results today remember, a result is a result, not a definition of who you are.

Boxing teaches us the same thing. You can win a bout, lose a bout, have a great performance or a bad night, but one result never tells the whole story.

It’s the work you put in, how you respond, what you learn and what you do next that matters.

🥊 Take the result. Learn from it. Keep moving forward.

Whether you got exactly what you wanted today or things didn’t quite go to plan, your next round starts now. 👊📚

Best of luck everyone

Great work from everyone tonight! 🥊💥

A real hard shift put in by the whole team, with everyone putting the work in and pushing themselves right to the end!

It was also great to see our female boxers sporting the brand-new female gloves we were able to purchase through our recent funding. 🥊❤️

One of our biggest aims this season is to get more girls and women into boxing, and having equipment specifically for our female boxers is another big step in the right direction.

The funding is already making a difference — and the girls certainly put the new gloves through their paces tonight! 💪🔥

Hard work starts now — let’s make this a big season! 🥊
