Taylor relaxed about fighting Azerbaijani on home turf

Irish boxing superstar Katie Taylor says she has enough experience of taking on opponents in their own backyard to not have to worry about her Azerbaijani rival in the semi-finals of the lightweight category at the European Games. The 28-year-old -- along with fellow Olympic gold medalists Jade Jones and Nicola Adams the highest profile athletes in Baku -- spoke after easing her way into the semi-finals with a unanimous decision over rising Swedish star Ida Lundblad on Wednesday. Taylor, who has not lost in four years, said it was down to her to outbox Yana Alekseevna and quiete the passionate Baku crowd.
