Himself and DOJ are two guys built for the pro's.

Yeah DOJ and Willie are made for the pros and are both around 25/26, hope they turn over meself .

They boxed in Saviour's but fight in Glasnevin now. Kalem Moran is the middle brother. He has two national title's.

I wouldn't go postin that online.

Yes Moorser I simply googled the name and that's the info I got. Pity that it seemed to affect his boxing career badly.
