Paul Hughes faces AJ McKee at The Mayadeen in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Saturday night
Paul Hughes has left no stone unturned as he prepares for his latest acid test. The Derry fighter takes on AJ McKee in Saudi Arabia on the undercard of Francis Ngannou's MMA return.
He told Belfast Live: "I am doing my whole camp here in Belfast. I think it's important for me to stay here and do my whole camp here, before I go onto the biggest stage of all. "I have worked my whole life to get to this stage and I aim to deliver. Yes, there is added pressure on a big stage and getting in there with someone who can knock you out so easily if you're not on your game.
He admits the step up to lightweight affords him more space to consume calories, making his weight cut more manageable.
