Brett McGinty back for bout in Coventry next month

BRETT McGinty will return for his fourth professional fight next month in England.

The St Johnston man (4-0, 1KO) will be back at the Coventry Skydome on November 13 on a Mick Hennessy-promoted card.

Last month, McGinty stopped Teodor Nikolov to record his first professional stoppage.

The eight-time Irish champion stopped Nikolov in the third round and the Ricky Hatton-trained middleweight has impressed Hennessy’s team.

A big support from the north west added weight to McGinty’s standing, the Donegal puncher backed by a vociferous crowd for the card-opener.

After his win over Nikolov, McGinty said: “I want to be 5-0 by the end of the year and have a big year next year.

“I want activity and I need activity. I’ll be out in November and December again. That’s what I need.”
