Offaly boxer Paul Loonam to fight in Dublin's 3 Arena
Pullough boxer Paul Loonam has announced that he will be boxing in Dublin's 3 Arena in September.
The local 23-year-old is set to appear on the undercard of a show titled 'Return of the Mick', which will be headlined by Belfast's Michael Conlan against England's Jack Bateson.
The night of boxing is taking place on Friday, September 5, from 8.30pm.
Paul Loonam suffered the sudden loss of his beloved father, also Paul Loonam, in a tragic accident on an Offaly farm earlier this month.
Posting on social media about the upcoming fight, the boxer said he would be dedicating his journey in the sport to his Dad.
"Time to rock the 3 Arena," he wrote. "Thanks to everyone for the support so far on our journey. Time for me to do this for Dad.
"Anyone looking for tickets just shoot me a message, also if there is any companies willing to jump on board to sponsor please reach out."
