Cork based Cuban fighter Luis Garcia will step in to fill the bill with Nathan King at the King’s Hall on Friday night’s Yanjing Beer Fight Night.
Garcia, who is undefeated in six professional fights, will replace Alexei Acosta at short notice after King’s original opponent fell ill.
The 22-year-old Cuban sensation is looking forward to entertaining the crowd on the night.
“I know all about the famous history at The King’s Hall and the great nights and great fights that it has hosted over the years so it’s an honour for me to be part of another big night of boxing there on Friday night. Hopefully I can put on a show for the people there,†Garcia said.
