Irish Boxing

Lee looked bad the other night end of story!Ring rust maybe, but then he should be fighting more often.We were told he was off getting the eye done thats fair enough but it opened immediately and hes off to Manchester today to get it done which begs the question what has he being doing for the last 8 months.I like Andy personally he's a great guy i think he has unlimited talent but that type of opponent will always cause Andy bother and that is a problem as Pavlik and Abraham fight exactly like that only better.I cant see him leaving the Kronk they seem like a family so he just needs to stay in America more (3 fights to 1 in ireland)and stay active.Box every two months or so.Then he may fulfill the potential some of us on this thread think he has.

 

nope had bloody work troubles had to drive here there and everywhere just home now going to get some sleep then im in work at 7am but rest assured i will re-score the fight before thursday and I will have an axe to grind with the wba (again after holyfield)

 

andy might be out again was talking to Manny and he said theyre going to bring him back to the surgeon that did the work on hatton again.

Corrupt *******s, Dunne winning the Title wasn't in their script. :fire

Off topic, Listened to the download of the show tonight, Very good interview with Harry Hawkins. Keep up the good work Paddy, and if you get your interview with Brian Peters could you give him a big thank you from me, the paying punter and a well satisfied one at that.

He's shown great faith in Bernard and he is a different breed as far as promoters go, He obviously is in it to make money but he's not like the others, he genuinely want's to give the people a great show, That is so rare these days in the world of boxing.

 

Cheers

 

According to the the scene Pavlik and Abraham are in talks for a unification fight in the Autumn, Provided they win their next fights.
That's good news for Duddy because he will get another few fights under his belt and hopefully make enough progress under Pat Burns to be ready for a Title shot at the start of 2010.
What do you lads think?

 

How are you Ardy - long time no speak. I will be going to the show in Salthill although I have to admit I don't know too much about the fighters involved. The number of new promoters/promotions out there is a testament to the healthy state Irish boxing finds itself in today.
I am looking forward to the first big Belfast promotion, probably Rogan. It will be a good excuse to get up there and avail of the cheap shopping.

 

I think i'll save my pennies and go to Cork on the 25th. the cubans,O Sullivan and Power all served up with a four course meal sounds good to me.Does anyone know if there is a special room rate in the hotel?

 

mickrick...where are you from ?

 

Near Oranmore in the County Galway....... etc etc etc.

Originally from the Maiden City - Derry.

 

Silverspings is about 80euro for a room usually i think.
any news on who any of the lads will be fighting on that night.
