What a name to have in your entourage!
It's been reported that Conor McGregor will walk Michael Conlan to the ring for the Belfast boxer's professional debut on Paddy's weekend.
Conlan officially announced his opponent for his first fight at Madison Square Garden today, and he confirmed it is indeed American Tim Ibarra as was reported yesterday.
Absolutely amazing listening to such determination from #irish boxer @mickconlan11 in @TheGarden today! Dinner on us when you get back lads! pic.twitter.com/9wFmHI5W0h
