The Dealer couldn’t help but notice during Katie Taylor’s fight on Saturday evening that her Belgian opponent Delfine Persoon, was sporting heavy sponsorship from New Holland Agriculture.
Her manager and trainer Filep Tampere also has strong connections to New Holland as he worked as a welder in their combine harvester factory.
Fans of Ford tractors will say that Persoon fought our Katie to a standstill for a second time in 15 months, but Deere and Massey fans will argue that the motto, “if it’s not blue it won’t do”, has taken two beatings.
