MIKE “The Rebel” Perez has not fought for more than a year but he will be doing some catching up at the UL Arena in Limerick on Saturday when fights twice on the undercard to the Andy Lee-Mamadou Thiam Yanjing Fight Night headliner.

ANDY LEE meets his toughest opponent so far in Senegal-born knockout specialist, Mamadou Thiam, for his May 15 assignment at the University Arena in Limerick.

A Limerick man who hit a father of three over the head with bottles of beer during a drinking session and left while he bled to death was today sentenced to eight years in prison.
