Former Irish boxing captain Darren O’Neill will look to complete his career renaissance next weekend after advancing to the final of the National Elite Championships.

The London 2012 Olympian had been due to take on Ighosa Igharo in tomorrow's 86kg semi before the Clann Naofa fighter was forced to withdraw from competition.
