Boxing supremo Eddie Hearn has provided an update on the potential undercard for Katie Taylor's fight with Amanda Serrano.
Taylor is due to take on the American in Dublin following on from her famous victory in their first duel last year. The location for the bout is still uncertain following Conor McGregor's offer of sponsorship for the Croke Park fees. The fight is due to take place on May 20th.
Hearn has all but confirmed the likelyhood of JJ Metcalf fighting Dennis Hogan on the undercard at Taylor's homecoming fight. Speaking to International Boxing News Hearn said,

"That is a fight that is being negotiated and you're very likely to see that fight on the card and I think that's almost certainly done."
Hearn also revealed he is working towards a fight featuring Irish lightweight Gary Cully but did not reveal who the potential opponent may be. Cully faces American Wilfredo Flores in Nottingham next Saturday 18th February and he'll be hoping to maintain his unbeaten record.
The 26-year old has nine knockout wins from fifteen fights so far and recently signed a new four-fight deal with Eddie Hearn and Matchroom.
