Jamie Conlan believes Saturday night's world title showdown between his brother Michael and IBF featherweight champion Luis Alberto Lopez will be a "special night in Irish boxing history".
Michael has already won a world title in the amateurs, and can become the first male Irish boxer to double up if he dethrones IBF featherweight champion Lopez at the SSE Arena.
"Luis Alberto Lopez is a fantastic champion who is risking everything by putting his belt on the line. And that's a credit to him," Jamie said.

"Michael has had a great career to this point and it all boils down to this. He has this opportunity to put everything on the line and I am so excited.
"This fight is the best fight out there. It is the most intriguing fight between two unpredictable fighters who have proved they can come back from adversity.
"I am fully behind my brother, obviously, but this is a dream for boxing fans. It is that kind of fight.
"It is not to be missed."
