Ahead of the Rumble In The Hills show, an open workout took place today at Letterkenny Shopping Centre.

Raphoe boxers, Danny Duffy (54kg), who recently won the bantamweight title at the National Senior Championships in Dublin earlier this month, and Cathal McLaughlin (75 kg), who was victorious at middleweight, are among four boxers from Donegal who will compete at the the National Elite Championship at the home of Irish boxing, the National Stadium, in Dublin on November 18th.
Both of them were in attendance at the Letterkenny Shopping Centre (on Saturday) for the open boxing workout to publicise the forthcoming Rumble in the Hills professional boxing event being held at the Aura Leisure Centre.
