Dublin duo secure February fight date
Both Ryan O’Rourke [1-0] and Paddy Nevin [2-0] have secured fight dates.
The St Michaels Inchicore graduates fight in England later this month.
The Steven O’Rourke trained and managed pair will trade leather in Tauton just outside of Bristol on February 21.
For welterweight O’Rourke it’s straight back into the mix. The 20-year-old debuted as recent as recent as January 30 – beating Qasim Hussain over four rounds in London – and fights just two weeks later.
The young prospect, who is also scheduled to appear in Bolton on March 14, will take on survival specialist Chris Adaway over four rounds.
Nevin had a much longer wait between fights than his stablemate. The heavyweight was last seen in the ring in December of 2018.
