Michael Conlan has been warned that he will have to put on a boxing masterclass to win via decision in Leigh Wood's backyard this weekend.
The Belfast fighter faces the WBA featherweight champion in Nottingham on Saturday night as he aims to become a world champion.
But the 2012 Olympic bronze medallist has been told he will need to be at his very best to catch the judges' eyes in light of the controversial decision that awarded hometown boy Josh Taylor a win over Jack Catterall in Glasgow last month.
