Mailman has score to settle
A nasty clash of heads led to a draw in the last bout
battle for the Celtic title, with there also being a chance the vacant Scottish Lightweight title will also be up for grabs.
The last time the pair met in the ring Flynn was stopped in the third round by a gash above his left eye after a clash of heads.
The Mailman came off worse in the incident, requiring 25 stitches to the cut and he later accused Collins of deliberately nutting him. The fight ended a technical draw.
He’s not worried about a repeat performance, and is solely concentrating on out-boxing Collins.
He said:“I’m not even thinking about that happening again. If he tries it he’ll be disqualified but I doubt he would.
“We’ve got fight plans but he’s quite a basic boxer. There’s no massive game plan needed to stop him.
“We’re fighting over ten rounds and I’m confident I’ll do the business, even if it does take ten. That’s what I’m doing in training and if it goes the distance I’ll do it no problem. I just can’t wait to get back in that ring and take him down.”
Flynn is looking forward to returning to the Hydro for the fourth time, having won his Commonwealth Gold there in 2014.
He is hoping for a good travelling support on a massive night for Scottish boxing.
“It’s a great night for Scottish boxing and this is where I want to be. It’s going to be me coming out on top.”
