Corrigan opens up about his title challenge;

“Training camp been great so far, no niggles or worries been feeling fresh throughout been working on both the body and mind. Feeling very confident at the moment”.

“It’s a sureal moment to say I’m fighting for a Western Australian title, I grew up dreaming of Irish and Celtic titles obviously life throws different challenges at you and you find yourself emigrating, I left Dublin on the 11th of March and arrived in Western Australia on the 13th of March subsequently 3 years to the day I find myself very proud to be apart of the community in Western Australia. The people, the state, the beaches, the city everything about it I’ve fallen deeply in love with. To become champion of the area and have my name and WA linked together forever I’d be deeply proud of.”

“I’ve sparred some very good boxers in preparation obviously I’ve watched my opponent and picked sparring partners that are similar. Been sparring everyone from middleweights to heavyweights, some of the rounds people should be charged to watch because they have been fire!!”

“Best of luck to my opponent, listen I’m not gonna talk any crap, end of day we both have 2 arms 2 legs and have our own reasons to be fighting we are going to leave it all in the ring.”
