Gerard Hughes fights Ruadhan Farrell on August 3 at the SSE Arena
Gerard Hughes insists he is revelling in the verbal sparring with Belfast rival Ruadhan Farrell ahead of their grudge rematch - but he can't wait to finally let his fists do the talking.
Hughes believes the flak that followed that first meeting has only ramped up the hype surrounding their rematch, and he is ready to deliver a statement performance to silence the doubters. Hughes added: "I have fought at the SSE before and Falls Park. Some big nights. I haven't even been a pro two years yet."And this is a big fight for two boxers early in their careers. It is probably because of that first draw.
