McKenna, Ireland’s second-youngest professional boxer and the youngest on Golden Boy Promotions’ books, has won his first five pro fights — three of them quick — since turning over last year.
A decorated amateur at underage level, McKenna earned a 40-36 x3 unanimous decision victory over game Mexican Rolando Mendivil following four explosive rounds in Hollywood back in August, and could fight twice more before the year is out.
