    He was very very good, but even then was slightly overated, picked up same favourable decisions from judges and had limited footwork.
    But you can like whoever you want, even a man that has twice tested positive for steroids. I should have known better than he'd face Fury though, I mean they were gonna pay Rogan £50,000, they'd hardly splash out $600,000 (or whatever ridiculous some he'd ask for) or so to get Toney


    On a note more related to Irish, what the hell is happening with Dean Byrne ?

    The fight would be rubbish, but the trash talking from both of them would be epic.

    Toney is in good shape at the moment (under 210) which is good for him

    Hello Mick, I'm glad you can make the Odyssey. There's an after party where a lot of the guys are going, not sure where it is [slappie can let you know]. Before the fights you should try and have a pint in The Crown, or Kelly Cellars or.. :huh what am I saying Belfast is full of great bars. I'll be in McHughs [beside the Albert Clock], another great bar.:deal

    If it's true, I don't like Fury vs. Toney as a match-up for young Fury. Toney is very cagey and durable and has underestimated power. If he's in any kind of shape, he will teach Fury a very valuable, if unpleasant, lesson.

    I wonder if they will try and get Paul Hyland to fight Frampton on short notice. Or would that be a no go. Would be a good test for Frampton. Not the biggest hitter out there but would be a decent last minute fight. IF Hyland wins he is back up to European level again maybe a worthwhile risk to take.
