VIDEO: Cork boxer records knockout wearing the strangest gear we’ve ever seen

Spike wins in second round

Kevin McGillicuddy

Big win for the Irishman in Boston.

Gary ‘Spike’ O’Sullivan could be about to line up a fight with Gennady Golovkin after an easy win tonight for the vacant NABA middleweight title in America.

The Corkman was fighting Melvin Betancourt as part of the undercard of James DeGale’s meeting with Andre Dirrell at Boston’s Agannis Arena.

The Irishman is now part of the team led by Ken Casey and his previous fight was against Milton Nunez in March.

Tonight he secured an impressive second round knockout against an opponent who had recorded 23KOs in his career upto tonight from 29 fights

The win was almost impressive as the garb that the Corkman wore into the fight.

Spike O'sullivan does it again with a KNOCKOUT !!!!!!!
