    My new Boxing coach.

    From what I gathered, he was at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, and then signed with Frank Maloney.

    James Chisolm?? Based somewhere in England. Read a few things about him before. He won a few underage Irish titles and went pro in the late 90's for a while I think, but possibly got injured before his debut??
    As regards the 2000 olympics, I'd say he might have referred to the fact that if he didn't go pro he would have aimed for them..

    Signed with Maloney, won his first twelve fights as a pro, including a KO over Canadian Champ. Then went to Germany and fought German champ, KO'd him in 4. Suffered a blow in earlier round, lead to him needing complete internal reconstruction of one of his ears.

    That time to pick elite winners............
    Fairly conservative picks;
    Barnes
    Conlon-But watch Phelan-must be a *****, can't go up or down without meeting one of the Worlds best.
    Nevin
    David Oliver, hardest one to call with Donovan and McCullough, and where is McDonagh?
    Moylette
    McLaughlin
    O'Neill(I'm always picking again him and it's the toughest weight this year but I've learned my lesson).
    Ward
    Corcoran
    Con Sheehan
    ward

    Lads I've never been to the Odyssey before, what are the £40 tickets like? Or would it be better to shell out 60 notes for a better view/value?
