Spike O’Sullivan targets title tilt with Andy Lee

Gary ‘Spike’ O’Sullivan has targeted an historic all-Irish world title showdown with close friend Andy Lee after racking up a fifth straight knock-out in Boston on Saturday.

The Mahon middleweight put a stop to Melvin Betancourt in the second round at the Agganis Arena and immediately turned his attention to securing a world title shot.

He said: “Andy Lee, he’s a good friend of mine but he’s got what I want in that world title and I’d knock my own brother out for the world title.”
