Big Sexy secures big rematch

Sean Turner [10(7)-1(0)] will get the chance for immediate revenge next month.

‘Big Sexy’ lost his unbeaten record in April, being narrowly outpointed over eight rounds (75-77) by game Polish journeyman Kamil Sokolowski.

The Dublin heavyweight returns on the second Ginley Promotions show, ‘Danger at The Devenish,’ on Saturday September 16th at the Devenish Complex in West Belfast.

The rematch will once again take place over eight rounds.

The Shankill big man trains at Taylor Made Gym under Pete Taylor alongside lightweights Gary Cully and Davey Oliver Joyce – both of whom are also in action on the Finaghy Road.

In addition to the Bray-based trio, the card next month also features Stevie Collins, Steven Ward, Anto Upton, Marco McCullough, and is headlined by Tyrone McCullagh and Tyrone McKenna.

Tickets costing £35/€40 and £65/€75 are available from the boxers involved.
