Underdog Dunne determined to go to ‘hell and back’

Yesterday the former European champion made the trip from his Belfast training camp to the familiar surroundings of the National Stadium.

“All I’m thinking about is getting into that ring and doing what I do best,” he said. “It is all positive thinking — we are going out to win this fight — whether we are going to have to out box this guy or whether we are going to have to outwork him, I am willing to push myself to the gates of hell if that’s what it takes. And that’s all I can do. If this guy’s better on the night, he is better on the night.”
