This time, it was Taylor challenging for all of Cameron's gold. The two collided inside the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland.

Before the bout began, those in attendance sang along to Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline." Video packages then aired further hyping the crowd up before the two titleholders made their entrances.
