Daniel O’Sullivan [1-0] He has been awarded a television fight slot for only his second professional fight.
The Celtic Warriors Gym fighter, who successfully debuted against Luke Middleton at the Europa Hotel on the Summer Brawl card earlier this year, returns to the same venue to fight on a much bigger show next weekend.
‘Daniel San’ has secured a coveted spot on the undercard of gymmate Eric Donovan’s long-awaited EU title challenge against Khalil El Hadri, which airs on TG4 next Saturday, meaning the middleweight light will have television in only his second professional outing. .
It’s a great opportunity for the entertaining fighter with an extremely unique backstory to get some exposure and possibly get placed in the frame of some Irish matchups.
O’Sullivan let him know that he was willing to step in and fight Owen Duffy or Dominic Donegan if half of the Cavan Clash was forced out by injury, but it looks like he’s filling in for Eddie Treacy.
‘The Honeybadger’ was set to fight for the first time in just under a year on the eagerly anticipated bill, but had to pull out due to circumstances beyond the control of him or his promoter Mark Dunlop.
Speaking online, the Bray fighter said:
“Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond my control, I am out of my fight next week.
“Camp was going really well, my fitness was there. He had only lost a couple of kilos of weight and was eager to do so. My first big opportunity live on TG4, but it’s not meant to be this time.”
