All Irish love Sean Murray fights returning Dominic Donegan

It’s a case of out of the frying pan into the fire for Sean Murray!

The Navan man stepped into all Irish action in just his second fight when he partook in an enthralling and thrilling encounter with Shane Meehan at the Warehouse last month.

Now just weeks after having his hand raised post that war he has been confirmed in another domestic fight.

Murray will fight Dominic Donegan at the same Red Cow venue on July 26.

Jay Byrne had suggested as much previously and it was officially confirmed this week.

Murray had called out Peter Carr at the Red Cow after his most recent win but heads in a different all-Irish direction for now.

Cavan’s Donegan hung up his gloves as recent as October, declaring he was content to retire with his ‘head held high and ready for the next chapter life brings’.

However, he declared his intention to return earlier this year and was due to fight Owen O’Neill in Belfast on March 30.

The Bomb pulled out of that clash with a hand injury and O’Neill fought Edgar Kemsky live on DAZN instead.

The bout has been sanctioned for six rounds and will open the door for a BUI Celtic title fight for the winner.
