See Sean Monaghan won again last night by KO on the undercard of the Donaire bill. Getting on bills like the Donaire bill and winning by KO can only be a good thing for Monaghan and might see him get on the undercard of the big shows more often.

Taylor was class in her post-fight interview. Anytime Katie loses a fight there is a cry of robbery in the Irish media. The one fight that she might have lost in the last 5-6 years was the last Ochigava contest (the scoring was BS but the decision was debatable)-it's on you-tube if anybody wants to see it - and Katie was honest enough to say this when the lazy reporter threw out the standard "revenge for robbery" line. Class in and out of the ring.
the galway card is on boxrec Sweeny v waldron and the usual connacht contingent Cruise Donnellan Eade Paddy ward and a new lad Peake,but with the cut eye Waldron picked up the other night is this event still going ahead??Anyone out there got any info on this???

Who is promoting it? Cant see how waldron would be fit for it anyway with a cut eye and hes probably on suspension for being stopped for a certain amount of time anyway.
Mc Donagh verus Sweeny would be a more entertaining fight id say,Would they both go for it? Hope it is still on we need something down here.
Far more entertaining, it's a pretty even fight whereas Waldron needs to think about the future, that said I missed their first one. I feel bad for the McDonagh brothers, like Anto Fitz they were hitched to Dolphil but they don't have the profile he has carved out for himself. I think they would both go for it, Paddy Mc v Michael Sweeney, that's the one to make.
