Katie Taylor wants another big fight and aims to take on Amanda Serrano.

Taylor put all four of her lightweight belts on the line on Saturday when she faced off with Natasha Jonas, and despite being made to work hard by her former Olympic rival, she secured a victory by way of a unanimous decision.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Taylor namechecked Serrano and Jessica McCaskill as fights she is looking to make.

 "There are still huge fights against the likes of Jessica McCaskill and Amanda Serrano,” she said.

"There is no such thing as an easy fight at this stage of your career.

"I want the big names, I want the big fights. There are big names out there.

"I definitely want to challenge myself against the very, very best. That's what I'm in the sport for.

"I don't see the point in ducking anyone or picking and choosing opponents.

"I want the very best because they bring out the best in me.

"That's what greatness looks like."

The fight saw her keep her belts and her undefeated record, and she praised her opponent for pushing her all the way.

She said: "It was a great fight and I'm just happy to have woken up as the world champion this morning.

"A phenomenal fight. Credit to Tasha who brought her A-game.

"Every time we box each other, we steal the show!

"I was expecting a tough 10-round battle and that's what it was.

"It was up in the air halfway through. But I won the championship rounds - the eighth, ninth and 10th.

"I had to show a lot of heart and grit. So did she. The last few rounds were crucial.

"I wasn't ever hurt in the fight. I wasn't worried about her power going into it.

"She obviously caught me with a few shots but I was never hurt or concerned at any point."

Jonas and Taylor were fighting as part of the Derek Chisora vs. Joseph Parker undercard.
