Round-by-Round: Katie Taylor vs. Flora Pili | DAZN - 5 September 2026

[Heldenjaeger]

How good is Carty actually? Never seen him fight. I know Allen though and he basically doesn't win rounds against anyone with a pulse, so unless he lands something that completely changes the fight or gets the KO I don't really see how he wins. If Carty has a pulse...

edit: Just seen the profile picture of the guy Carty lost to. I think that answers my question.

I've seen him a few times, he's solid against low level competition. It just depends if Dave's up for it.

[gregregegg]

I thought he had looked pretty good inactivity few of the fights I'd seen him in. Good enough that I was quite surprised to see Dave allen as the betting favourite (even when fat)

But I haven't really seen carty in years so I don't really know.

[samwbr]

Allen looks in bad shape even by his own standards. Probably win tho.

[BigEars]

Katy Taylor shows the importance of a narrative and a fan base.

She is an arm puncher with zero power, and honestly i have her losing twice to a part time cop fighting out of her weight (persoon), loosing to cameron, loosing to serano 3 times (also fightig way out of her weight,)...

She has done incredible things for women's boxing, but I don't see her as an incredible women's boxer.

This is a classic example of someone exaggerating when trying to make a point, to the extent they'll be ignored.

Taylor has been lucky, she definitely lost the first Person fight, the first two fights with Serrano could have gone either way, and I'm in the minority but I thought the second Person fight was a draw (most had Taylor winning).

However once you start claiming Serrano won the 3rd fight, your whole post loses any validity.
You might as well state Wilder won a shutout in the first fight with Fury.

[Kilburn]

The Betty belt is being tested tonight.

[jameswilson]

Carty out the ring and injured.

[Heldenjaeger]

Zero punch resistance from Carty, legs gone after getting touched behind the head. And what's going on now? Not stopped?

[BigEars]

Was Carty half out from that shot before he got shoved ?

[Controversial]

wtf happened there?

[Heldenjaeger]

Got hit behind the head. Carty went down from it but the ref didn't notice? Then another touch behind the head and he fell out of the ring.

Ah ok, I looked away for a split second and then saw him fly out the ring

[gregregegg]

Did allen chin him just befor he fell out that's what I thought live but no replays...

[BigEars]

Dave Allen "He jumped out of the ring"

I don't think Dave realised how much he had him hurt.

[Heldenjaeger]

No, also behind the head. It was a chopping right hand.

[JamesPhilips]

It looked like he deliberately jumped out the ring after being hit on the back of the head

[BigEars]

Also from the replay you can see the ropes were extremely loose.
Definitely didn't help things.

[handsofstone]

Looked like Allen caught Carty back of the head or behind the ear, he was hurt

[Ruthless-RKO]

[Kilburn]

Dave can go out and have a well earned slap up meal after this, after all the sacrifice he’s put himself through for tonight.

Looking at the replay I can sort of see why Dave would think Carty jumped through the ropes.

[handsofstone]

First replay looked back of head, last one looked behind the temple

[MightyWarrior]

We’ve now seen a literal Olympic standard dive right out of the ring, 10 out of 10, he really kept his shape there with some lovely flowing movement.
Like a diving mullet

[Heldenjaeger]

No idea why they don't show the first illegal punch and Carty going down from it. Did nobody notice?

[rd350lc]

What an utter shambles of a night of boxing.
Pathetic

[TheLeprechaun]

That was absolutely pathetic from Carthy.
