Haiku or Heaney, whatever your taste in verse, if your even have a passing interest in boxing, you're bound to appreciate the sheer power and style of the poetry in motion of fledgling Belfast professional fighter Michael Conlan as he hammers a hapless Luis Molina of Argentina at Madison Square Garden in New York in December 2017.
Three wins on since then the west Belafast switch-hitter is set for his Las Vegas fight night debut this weekend.
The Conlan revolution has hit New York City, Australia, Arizona, Chicago, and Northern Ireland, declares Top Rank promoters .
''Now, Michael “Mick” Conlan is set to conquer the Las Vegas Strip.
''Conlan, the talk of the 2016 Summer Olympics, will take on Nicola Cipolletta (14-6-2, 4 KOs) in an eight-round featherweight bout on Saturday, October 20 at Park Theater at Park MGM on the undercard of Ryota Murata’s WBA middleweight title defense against Rob Brant.''
