The former World amateur champion is on the cusp of securing a world title fight so long as he maintains his unbeaten record in the professional ranks. The fans have been very supportive right from the beginning at my pro debut on St Patrick’s Day in 2017," said Conlan. The St Patrick’s night show in MSG will also feature unbeaten American fighter Mikaela Mayer who could be a future opponent for Katie Taylor.
