Breen: McCullough and Conlan will deliver tonight

JOHN Breen is backing bill toppers Jamie Conlan and Marc McCullough to deliver at the Waterfront tonight.

The respected Belfast trainer had his last camp in his Belfast City Gym before he moves premises and he is confident he will enter his new gym with two WBO European Champions.

“Marc has been training and sparring very well and I believe he will get the job done.

“When we told Marc who he was fighting he took about 28 seconds to say ‘yes.’, Breen told the Belfast Newsletter.

“Marc knows he has to beat guys like this if he is to make it to the very top. It is a tough fight for him but Marc is very strong for the weight and I believe he will deliver on the night,” he added.

Breen is also delighted to see Conlan get the recognition his talents deserve.

“I have been talking about Jamie for years and he is now starting to the get the acclaim he deserves.

“Jamie is a top talent and now that Paul Butler is a world champion, the British title is there for the taking,” he added.
