Press Release: Super bantamweight Rendall Munroe continues his busy reign as European champion when he meets rugged Italian challenger Fabrizio Trotta on a big boxing show at City Universityx in Dublin, Ireland tomorrow, Thursday, December 18th. Supporting the main event is the pro debut of Olympic Bronze Medallist Darren Sutherland at super middleweight as well as a Commonwealth welterweight showdown between champion Craig Watson, 13-2, and challenger Adnan Amar, 22-1, plus a Commonwealth bantamweight clash between champion Jason Booth, 30-5, and challenger Sean Hughes, 15-7-1. Munroe, 16-1, puts the European belt at risk for the third time since lifting the crown from dangerous Spaniard Kiko Martinez in March of this year. But the lightning quick southpaw will first have to sweep away the challenge of iron-chinned pressure artist Trotta, 13-4-2, who won the Italian title in April before losing a close contest to burgeoning star Jeremy Parodi in the Frenchman's hometown of Toulon.
