Donovan, who is BUI Irish champion at featherweight, will step up to super-featherweight on the Sky Sports card against Barrett (23-1, 14 KOs).
And with the IBF’s intercontinental belt now up for grabs as well, victory would see him earn a place in the organisation’s rankings and open the door to the prospect of a future world title shot.
Ireland’s interest in the Fight Camp series got off to the best possible start on the first of the cards in ‘Matchroom Square Garden’ last Saturday night.
