Irish Boxing

He seems a character alright!

 

You can do it James! He's a good boxer, but you can do it.

Fight aggressive, but fight smart... keep your poise every round!

I know he can't hear me, but what the hell!

 

what a start 2 the nite...greart win 4 mcdonagh

 

Well done Magee. But a brave performance by McKay was not enough:bart

 

yeah marty boy...must agree with u there...nice bodyshots magee got off on mcguire:good

 

Hope he pulls it of myself. I dont know if I can stay awake:tired

 

After 4rds Foreman is well ahead:bart

 

Moore needs a knockout he's not going to get, Foreman isn't just winning these rounds he's winning them by a country mile.

Now while Foreman is a good fighter, after seeing him against plenty of other guys I think this is more of a showcase of where Moore is at, rather than where Foreman is at. Combined with the loss to Rosado I think it may indicate that James Moore is a domestic and just above fighter, and nothing more than that.

He's tough though, he'll take it from Foreman all night if he has to.

 

Foreman making him look stupid.

 

Easy win for Foreman

Where does Moore go from here:huh

 

Henry Coyle, Irish title fight. At least that's what makes sense for me.
He'd probably have an easier career fighting from home too.

Reports of Magee/McKay/Moore and about a documentary on Jimmy McLarnin

 

Thanks Cormac, Im very saddened about Moore. I havent seen the fight yet, but going by reports of the fight, he was taken to school.:-(

 

Unfortunately he was complete rubbish. I don't know if the occasion was too much for him or if it was just and off night or if he is just really limited.

He hadn't a clue what to do for the entire fight. Looked to me like he had resigned himself to losing after 4-5 rounds. Also it was a bad sign that he was hit that often by a non-puncher that he was rocked more than once. Foreman hasn't real power but he connected that regularly that he got to Moore a couple of times.

All our prospects (bar McCloskey) seem to have been derailed in the last 12-18 months

 

I suppose its not always about winning titles, its about raising the profile of professional boxing in Ireland, which is happening.The champions will come, maybe not with this punch of prospects, but maybe the next, say Sutherland for example.:think
