Fights of Christmas Future – Creagh eyes Christmas Carroll Clash

Sean Creagh has responded to Stephen Carroll’s call-out, and the Tallaght welterweight is open to the fight.

Ballyfermot’s Carroll last week contacted us to express his desire for a clash with the MGM prospect, reasoning that it would be β€œan entertaining fight and probably the type of fight that would help the winner really kick on.”

β€œIt would generate interest and we both sell tickets.”

27 year old Creagh has since spoken to irish-boxing.com and confirmed that he would also like to engage in a Dublin derby with his fellow novice.

‘Creaghsy’ agreed that β€œI think me and Shortty would be a great fight for a small hall show”

β€œI think the fans would get their money’s worth!”

However, Creagh [3(1)-0] feels that he and Carroll [2(0)-0] both need a couple more learning fights before a Christmas cracker of a showdown.

The former white collar puncher explained that β€œI think the two of us need two more fights, and then we could get it on around Christmas time for a Celtic Warrior title.”

Creagh, like Carroll, is confident of victory if the pair are to come to blows, stating that β€œit would be an early Christmas present with the win for me after a tough fight.”
