Kevin Ohara wants rematch with Ricky Burns

[The_budweiser]

Kevin O'Hara says he deserves rematch with Commonwealth super-featherweight champion Ricky Burns.

 

Sweat Pea lost on points to the Scotsman in Glasgow in June in a challenge for the title.

 

But O'Hara says he believes he won the fight, and is entitled to a return.

 

The Ulsterman will look to make a point on November 6 at the Odyssey Arena when he appears as part of the undercard to Sam Sexton's Commonwealth heavyweight title defence against Martin Rogan.

 

O’Hara told the Belfast Evening Telegraph: “I think I proved a lot to many people in the fight with Burns and I’m now right up there in the mix for another Commonwealth title fight or even a British title chance.

 

"I thought I won the Burns fight and I deserved a rematch.

 

“I took a lot of confidence from the fight with Burns, I exposed a guy who is highly ranked in the World.”

 

O'Hara, 28, has a 16-5 (5) record, but has never been stopped.
