Kerryman Kevin Cronin has been signed by Conlan Boxing and will become the first ever fighter to be managed by Olympian Michael Conlon.

Cronin, who has an impressive professional record of 6-1-1, has experienced a difficult period of late with a number of fights being cancelled at the last minute through no fault of his own. It is hoped that teaming up with Conlon will open new doors for the super middleweight from Milltown.

“We have some exciting plans for the year ahead and I look forward to [Conlon Boxing] guiding me to the top of the game,” Cronin said as he unveiled the partnership to his followers on social media.

Cronin’s participation in the 2023 Irish Boxing Awards Domestic Fight of the Year (against Jamie Morrissey) is thought to have encouraged Conlon to sign the Kerry boxer to his roster.

Killarney teenager Luke Doolan has signed for Kerry FC, making the move from local side Killarney Athletic.

The 17-year-old forward was a standout performer in the Kerry District League last season and caught the eye with five goals in the Munster Youths Cup.
He also featured for Athletic’s senior team and earned a call-up to the Republic of Ireland Under-18 squad, where he impressed in international friendlies.
Doolan will now train with the Kerry FC first team and play with the club’s Under 20 Academy side. His signing is another boost for the club’s commitment to developing local talent.
Speaking after the move, Luke said: “I’m delighted to have this chance with Kerry FC and I’m looking forward to working with the team. I’m grateful to Colin Healy for the opportunity and I’m excited to play in front of the Kerry supporters.”
First-team manager Colin Healy added: “Luke has trained with us for the last number of weeks and has really impressed. He’s shown a great attitude and hunger to learn. He’s a talented young player and this is the next step for him.”
Kerry FC CEO Billy Dennehy said: “Luke’s journey is similar to many young players who previously had no League of Ireland pathway in Kerry. His progress is a credit to Killarney Athletic and his coaches. We look forward to helping him develop further at the club.”
