What has been said?
The club said: "Pádraig McCrory makes his long awaited US debut on Saturday 24th February, the main event at the Caribe Royale, Orlando. Billed as 'The Shootout', the Matchroom Boxing Promotion sees Pádraig travel from his native Falls Road, Belfast, Ireland to square off against New Yorks hard hitting Edgar Berlanga.
"Matchroom Boxing CEO, Eddie Hearn, has described the fight as being "X-Rated", with both fighters famed for firepower that's kept them feared and undefeated. Pádraig (18-0), known as 'The Hammer', has pledged his way from small hall shows to the brink of a showdown with Canelo Alvarez via an Orlando firefight with Berlanga 21-0.
"Pádraig is an immensely popular figure in his native Belfast, known for his humility and love of his community, including his lifelong commitment to his GAA team and club Cardinal O'Donnell's GAC, Belfast."
Orlando GAA is dedicated to promoting the "rich heritage and culture" of Gaelic sports in its community, while "fostering inclusiveness, sportsmanship, and a sense of belonging for all members".
Praising McCrory, the club added: "Across Ireland and further afield, legions of fans have identified with the working class hero and family man's story of struggle, self-belief, overcoming odds.
