Ticket prices confirmed & fight time hinted at for Katie Taylor homecoming

This will be huge!

The bout will mark the final fight of Taylor's illustrious career and also the first boxing match in Croke Park since Muhammad Ali fought Alvin "Blue" Lewis in July 1972.

A huge talking point surrounding the spectacle was what how tickets will be priced going into what should be one of Croke Park's greatest nights.

The capacity is set to be over 80,000 - Matchroom officials confirmed - with ticket prices ranging from €38.70 general admission, to €106.25 - €1,505.50 for pitch-side-access.

Family ticket packages are priced at €125.50 (seated in a non-alcohol area in the stadium).

Tickets go on pre-sale on June 10th and will go to general sale on Friday, June 12.

Speaking to event co-ordinators at the press conference, it was made clear that Taylor v Pili will follow the Croke Park curfew of 10:30pm like concerts such as Oasis last year, which could hint at a possible fight time.

The undercard is yet to be revealed.

At her press conference, Katie Taylor siad: "We've actually brought boxing back to Croke Park.

"This is going to be the most iconic moment of my whole career.

"I have a chance to become a three-time undisputed champion, how amazing is that? The perfect way to end my career."

Promoter Eddie Hearn paid a heart warming tribute to the Irish boxing legend.

He added: "Going through her career, from sending a DM saying she wanted to turn pro to those Serrano fights, the Cameron bouts, the journey has been incredible.

"It'll be the biggest crowd in the history of female sport for an individual athlete, it'll be one of the greatest sporting moments this country has ever seen. More important than that, it'll be her moment."
