The Westmeath man has won ten consecutive fights heading in to Friday's bout.
Midlands fighter Joe Ward returns to the ring this weekend.
The Moate man was in impressive form last time out, landing a quality left hook to take down Prince Oko Nartey in Letterkenny.
Ward takes on the experienced Derrick Webster who's most recent fight of 35 professional outings ended in a split decision draw.
The Irish light heavyweight is fighting at Madison Square Garden for the fifth time, with the card being headlined by Cork's unbeaten Callum Walsh against Dauren Yeleussinov of Kazakstan.
The action starts in New York late on Friday evening, Irish time.
