NewzKatie Taylor is scheduled to headline a boxing event at Croke Park, marking the first time the venue has hosted a boxing match since Muhammad Ali defeated Al 'Blue' Lewis in 1972. The upcoming event serves as a significant return of the sport to the iconic stadium after more than five decades.
In anticipation of the event, Paddy Maguire, who competed on the undercard of the 1972 Ali fight, has been highlighted as the last person to box at the venue. His involvement provides a historical link between the legacy of Ali’s appearance and the modern milestone being set by Taylor.
