BUI awards winners in:

Fighter: Andy Lee
Prospect: Jono Carroll
Fight: Carroll v Geraghty
KO: Spike v Fitz
Trainer: Packie Collins

 

We have a lot of prospects more talented Jono Carroll, but he's had phenomenal year by any prospects standards, so I can see why they chose him. Every other choice seems good.

Whens this Fra, first Ive heard of it.:think

 

20th of feb ....red cow hotel:good

 

cummings fites on frampton bill on 28th of feb... unless he fiting both nites:good

 

Read in the paper today that Eamonn O'Kane now being managed and trained by Paddy Fitzpatrick. Going to be having his training camps in London and great sparring with George Groves, could be a good move for him. Hopefully, he can kick on and get himself back in the frame for big fights.

 

Very very strange year for irish fighters. On the one hand one guy ..Andy Lee.. Wins a bixing world title and hardly gets a mention in the irish media, on the other hand I can't read a paper or turn on the radio without hearing some guff about that kiddy icon Conor mcgroeger.

Then again a boxer gets named "fighter of the year" in a year that he ..literally...hardly won a round, (according to the judges scoring his fights)!!!!

Very strange.....
