Paddy The Hooligan Holohan Interview

We speak to Ireland's UFC star ahead of his UFC Dublin bout and Cork appearances

We're not too far away from the UFC's return to Dublin.

The full fight card is here - the card is headlined by Joe Duffy v Dustin Poirier (you can hear my chat with Duffy here) and there's plenty of Irish interest.

Paddy Holohan, Cathal Pendred, Aisling Daly, Neil Seery and Norman Parke will fight in front of a sold out 3Arena on October 24th, in what is sure to be another magical night for Irish MMA.

Paddy "The Hooligan" Holohan fights Louis Smolka on the night - the Hawaiian defeated Seery at UFC 189.

Paddy is also coming to Cork in a fortnight - he'll be giving a seminar at SBGi Cork City and hosting a Q and A at the Deanrock Bar in Togher.

I got a chance to speak to Paddy about all those things and more - click PLAY below.

Thanks to Paddy for the chat, and best of luck to the Hooligan against Smolka - not that he needs it as he's going to win on the night.

Paddy will be hosting seminars at in Blackpool on Saturday the 26th of September - that's all sold out! BUT...Paddy will be appearing at SBGi in Blackpool, Unit 2, North Point Business Park, Blackpool tonight September 25th - more information on the event's Facebook page and tickets are available from eventbrite.ie
