For his next fight, ‘The Tartan Tornado’ revealed his tartan-style shorts and his robe for his ring walk.
Take a look at the tweet:
This time, his shorts will display his own name rather than his nickname. The shorts come in a checkered style, with various different colors and a black elastic band around the waist that says ‘Taylor’ in blue. His robe, on the other hand, is pretty simple. A black velvet robe with the same pattern on its cuffs as his shorts. On the back, in the same color combination, is his name.
Taylor is taking on Jack Catterall in an all-British battle at the SSE Hydro, in Taylor’s hometown of Glasglow, Scotland. The home fans will be cheering on their ‘Tartan’ Warrior to put another win to his name. Undisputed Light-Welterweight Champion Josh Taylor will look to defend his belts against the WBO’s mandatory challenger, Jack Catterall.
