The rising featherweight star is aiming to continue his impressive form and put on a great fight for his fans this weekend.

“I’m looking forward to another fantastic night of boxing in The Theatre at Madison Square Garden.

“It will be exactly one year to the day since my professional debut in the Mecca of Boxing. I’m excited and ready to put on a great show for my amazing fans,” said Conlan.

“I know, like last year, thousands are travelling over from home to support me for which I’m hugely grateful. There is only one place to be on St. Patrick’s Day this year, and that is The Garden.”
