Out of the Blue bouts for McCarthy and Farrell in Estonia
Tommy McCarthy [18(9)-4(2)] and Ruadhan Farrell [2(1)-0] will make out-of-the-blue returns in Estonia on Saturday.
The pair weighed in virtually unannounced for a Fair Play card on Friday and fight in surprise bouts tonight.
McCarthy will look to put some distance between himself and back-to-back defeats to Chris Billiam Smith.
The former European Champion fights Pauls Vilbergs [1(1)-4(4)] at the Tondi 17 Boxing Hall in Tallinn.

Farrell fights for just the third time as a pro and for the third time in four months when he fights Latvian Antons Zacests [5(5)-14(11)] on the bill.
Cruiserweight McCarthy fights over six rounds taking a last-minute chance to fight after spending a week sparring in Estonia, a win regardless should allow a fighter of his standing to go straight back into fights of note.
‘Ruddy’ will fight over six, which will make him BUI Celtic eligible after just three fights.
