Hylands set for NYC

13 November 2008 – by Mark Doyle

Patrick and Eddie Hyland will make their New York City debuts when they box at the Roseland Ballroom on December 4.

The Dublin duo will both fight in scheduled six-rounders against as yet to be confirmed opponents.

Patrick Hyland, 25, is the current Irish featherweight champion and boasts a undefeated record of 15-0.

Elder brother Eddie claimed the Irish super-featherweight title with a points win over Kevin OHara earlier this year.

Meanwhile, the youngest of the Hyland brothers, Paul, who lost his unbeaten record to Lucian Gonzalez last month, is scheduled to make his return to the ring in Dublin next month.
