Paddy joins Donegal folk supporting Katie Taylor

One Inishowen man was among the 19,000 boxing fans inside the iconic Madison Square Garden supporting Katie Taylor against Amando Serrano.

Paddy Henderson, owner of The Lieu's Bar in Buncrana, made the trip to the Big Apple to see our own Katie Taylor crowned Undisputed Lightweight World Champion.

On his way into the historic bout, Paddy was questioned by one of New York's finest. The Buncrana man was doing his usual, advertising who was playing music in The Lieu's Back Yard Bar on Sunday.

The cop was impressed when Paddy told him, he was the only publican in Ireland who was able to operate the whole way through Lockdown by using social media.
