    Yes and thats the point Mossy if Peters ran the big one every couple of months the other guys ,Hylands ,Dolphil,and Hyde could do their own thing aswell and everyone is happy and the times these guys dont have a show they can use Peters promotions to get the better guys like Pajo more exposure,

    Peters shows compared to Hyland shows underlines the old adage 'quality over quantity'.

    Patrick is the best boxer in that family but his career is on a painfully slow trajectory.
    10 fights in 3 and a half years to start off. Fair enough, not as many as you would like to see but each to their own.
    The he fights Griffin and gets a decisive KO win. Instead of stepping up the opposition he fights a 1-9 lad then a couple of afrobums. Since then its 2 fights in 7 months.

    16-0 looks nice but he hasn't fought anyone decent and, although 25 isn't old, if he keep averaging 3 fights a year he won't get very far at this rate. time to step it up and test himself properly

    i think lee would be doing all right if he was to fight in the states in late june or early july and then fight a good opponent on the dunne undercard in september if that goes ahead....what i mean by good is a top 20 fighter...:bbb:bbb

    Yeah, that is my fear, no tv coverage, bloody shame. Can't wait for another top bill on RTE, but who?
