This is excellent!

Michael Conlan is preparing to get into the ring for his professional debut on St Patrick's Day in New York.

The former Olympic bronze medalist received worldwide acclaim following his outburst at the Rio Games last year, where he launched a scathing attack on amateur boxing chiefs following his controversial loss to Russia's Vladimir Nikitin, vowing to "never fight for AIBA again".

Since signing with Top Rank, the former Olympian has been penciled in to top the card in Madison Square Garden, on what looks to be a cracking weekend for Irish sport.

Top Rank have released a video on the build up to the fight, which looks at the area Conlan grew up in, and an insight into his life outside of the ring.
