Padraig McCrory now has two fighters on his roster - Owen O'Neill and Gerard Hughes
From small hall shows to winning a world title in Germany, Padraig McCrory has been around the block in boxing.
"We have managed a bit of a coup by getting Gerard on the Matchroom card on December 2, as part of the massive Michael Conlan bill at the SSE Arena. He will fight Belfast's Rudy Farrell which is a great opportunity for him." "But I have good relationships with a lot of boxing managers and promotional companies. I have a lot of links in the sport and have been learning the game as I have boxed.
The Hammer - who remains unbeaten in the paid ranks - has enjoyed some stellar nights in his career, punctuated by last year's incredible IBO World light-heavyweight title win in Germany. "There were times I almost fought for nothing after covering all of the costs. And I went on to win a world title in Germany.
