Not so bad instead of Hyland is the Italian lad with the extremely padded record i got the other two right Sweeny v Waldron is on and Eade fight Coveney a very winnable fight but a definite step up.
It will be interesting to see if Coyle gets half as much abuse for fighting for the WBF "world" title as fitz did?
Jaysus that O'Brien fella is a character. Hes talking a bit of sense as well regarding Haughian. Need to get more interviews with him. Still remember him laying into Prunty
I thought you were calling Coyle fat, and rightly so, he fought ay 160 last time and looked really soft. He should be fighting at 147

Coveney vs Eade, I seriously think eade has bitten off more than he can chew here, Think Coveney has too much experience for him, but will be interesting to see :bbb:bbb
How come the fight is on a Friday night in Mayo? Is Peters talking to tv about getting it some coverage on tv be it RTE or Highlights on other stations. Maybe RTE have some money spare for the Summer and could put this on live. They only really have the warm up rugby games of France home and away and the GAA coverage to show with the odd Horse racing for the summer the rest there isnt a lot.
Odd date alright for an Irish card alright, but it goes on in America a lot in the Friday night fights.
You could be right. It's the fight of the night as far as I am concern. Sweeney - Waldron is saucy as well but Sweeney will stop him. I watched Coveney against Alex Dilmagani in his last fight. I rated Dilmagani having seen some of the fights at the start of his career but Coveney outworked, out hustled and roughed him up to take a shock win. There will be sparks in that fight as the two fly at eachother with no reverse gear to slip into. :bbb
One of the Waldrons is saying that Darren Cruise went to Peters and "called out Anto" So it now looks like we have Fitzer v Cruise in an 8 rounded on the bill.
Anto Fitzgerald could face Darren Cruise in Mayo on August 12 http://www.irish-boxing.com/2011/07...o-fight-menu-hyland-and-fitzgerald-to-appear/ re tv- i hear TG4 are ok for cash! they get a nice budget- think they just bought the rights for the highlights of the Henio (D4) cup!!! maybe they might show an interest?
