McGregor took to his Instagram account to praise Taylor ahead of her title unification bout this weekend:
”This is one of my favorite pictures! What an experience it was to watch this woman fight live! If I was not in a cast from my own fight preparations, I would be ringside for this fight 100%! Back this woman all the way! Aiming to become the Unified World Boxing Champion this weekend! The first boxer male or female from the Emerald Isle to ever reach this coveted position! Ireland’s Katie Taylor! What a woman.”
Taylor holds the WBA, IBF, and IBO female lightweight titles. Persoon is the WBC female lightweight champion. The winner of their bout will also be awarded the inaugural female lightweight The Ring title.
