VIDEO: Paddy Barnes and Michael Conlan take to YouTube to challenge the Joyces

Simply brilliant.

IRISH BOXING’S COMEDY duo Paddy Barnes and Michael Conlan have teamed up with fellow Belfast fighter Tommy McCarthy in the funniest video clip we’ve seen in awhile.

The Olympic medallists, known for their sense of humour, take the mickey out of the trend which sees bareknuckle boxers challenging opponents via YouTube and vow to fight members of the Joyces – a famous family of bareknuckle boxers from Mullingar.

If that wasn’t enough, Irish coach Zaur Antia even makes a brief cameo.

Warning: Strong language in both clips

The Joyces weren’t too happy and came back with this response:

We are eagerly awaiting an announcement about when and where these fights will take place.
