    Nah man:bart cant agree with you there. Vazquez is the man to go for. Thats were the money and the fame is at, and besides **** Maloney the wee *****, his **** talking has did more damage to this match up than good.

    Too right marty! go for the big boys! theres no point on feasting on the likes of munroe....... It wont tell us anything about Dunne as a fighter. potentially he can take more away from a loss to izzy than a win against the bin man.......

    and what if he beats izzy.......... possibilities are mouth watering!

    Izzy is a prime piece of steak, Munroe is a burger from a motorway service station. I know which one id rather have!

    Pretty well actually,
    We have plenty of boxers in contention for titles and some who already hold titles
    Bernard dunne - WBA interim champion at sbw
    Paul mMcloskey - British champion at lww and trying to secure a european title shot against junior witter.
    Martin rogan - Common wealth champ at hw , very entertaing fighter and great character keep an eye out .
    Martin lindsay - fighting for a british title against a scot called appleby, look up martin lindsay ko on youtube.
    There are other prospects/contenders who are all looking good. Andrew murray , Stephen haughian, dean byrne, the hyland brothers Gary o sullivan to name a few.
    Other based in america you probably heard of andy lee and duddy
    Im sure if ive left out much the lads will fill you in

    We also have Brian Magee, a Super-middleweight who recently vacated his British title. He's past his best now but still is around European level. he gave Carl Froch a very tough fight and was robbed against Vitaly Tsypko in Germany.

    Darren Sutherland an Olympic Bronze medallist who has had 2 fights so far a looks a great prospect. At the very least he'll make European level but has a very good chance of going further than that.
