It’s a heavyweight special today as we’re joined by Ireland’s top man in the showbiz division, undefeated Dublin banger Thomas ‘The Bomber’ Carty. Carty was on with us three years ago as a 1-0 pro and since then his picked up some momentum. He’s fought at the O2 in London, the Nottingham Arena, Wembley Arena and York Hall in the UK. And he’s managed to fulfil part one of the pro dream by boxing on huge cards back home – twice at the 3Arena on the Katie Taylor v Chantelle Cameron cards, and a trip out west to fight alongside his Celtic Warrior brothers – and manager Dillian Whyte – in Castlebar, Co Mayo. He’s also won a belt in the form of the BUI Celtic title and oh, he started a business too. Next up, on September 20, is another outing at Dublin’s 3Arena, this time supporting another boxer who’s getting a homecoming in the shape of Callum Walsh. Argentina’s Jonathan Exequiel Vergara, who’s won six and lost one so far, will be in the opposite corner on what’s sure to be a fun night at the fights. With the 6ft 4in southpaw back on another major card at the 3Arena, we ask if there’s any truth to the rumour that it’s in the venue’s contract that if there’s no Carty, there’s no party. We also look ahead to the undercard featuring the Craig O’Brien v Edward Donovan and Emmet Brennan v Kevin Cronin derby fights, and upcoming heavyweight slobberknockers featuring his sparring partners Anthony Joshua (v Daniel Dubois) and Tyson Fury (v Oleksandr Usyk II).
