I think it's at a point now where he thinks it's more likely than not to happen.

And even the noises from Crowe Park, it was at the annual Tom Ryan's annual report.

Peter McKenna's always there and he always answers a few media questions.

And generally it's about the kind of finances of Crowe Park because he is the commercial manager as well as being the stadium director.

But he was asked about Katie Taylor and it was the first time that he made any sort of positive noises.

Now he said very vague things of, you know, the planets have to align.

But like the truth that they're not speak its name here and because I think people don't like saying this is,

Like, you have to fill Crow Park.

You have to get a big crowd in to justify the expense and putting it all there.

Like, how bad would it be if Katie Taylor's last fight was in the half-empty Crow Park?

The last time Katie Taylor fought in Dublin in 2022 or 23 against Chantal Cameron, like, there was tickets available on the Tuesday of fight week and there's only 9,000 people

get into the three arena so like it's a big promotional job and that's kind of eddie hearn's job now it's such a big thing that it will naturally draw more people you know it goes back to the classic example is the happy mondays when they were kind of the band they were they were at the stage where people weren't showing up to their gigs anymore and people had lost interest and their manager took a big punt and he booked at wembley stadium and everybody went oh

Oh, the Happy Mondays.

They're playing Wembley Stadium.

They must be huge again.

So I think that will naturally inflate the audience.

And it's her last fight.

And it's her last fight.

So I think there's going to be a natural interest.

But it's funny that there's no obvious fight there for her.
