Walsh has a long standing relationship with UFC President and CEO Dana White, who has supported Walsh’s career and provided guidance after building a combat sports empire in UFC.
“I met Callum Walsh a couple of years ago and I love the way he fights. I also love the fact that he’s not fighting guys to pad his record, like the typical boxing model. This is a kid who really believes in himself and his potential to become a world champion,” said White.
“I also love the fact that one of the greatest trainers in the history of the sport, Freddie Roach, believes in him. I am very invested in this fight in Dublin and I’m really excited to not only bring a fight back to Ireland but to be sitting ringside to see Callum fight in his home country at 11-0 with 9 knockouts taking on the #1 Super Welterweight from Poland with 25 pro fights and has never been stopped. This fight is a huge opportunity for both fighters with the WBC title on the line.”
The card is full of Irish talent, with Dublin heavyweight Thomas Carty facing Jacek Chruslicki of Poland, while Tokyo Olympian Emmet Brennan takes on Kerry's Kevin Cronin for the Super Middleweight Celtic Title.
The brother of Limerick welterweight star Paddy Donovan, Edward Donovan, is also in action, taking on Dubliner Craig O’Brien for the Super Welterweight Celtic Title.
