Irish Boxing

I thought the Cubans were working with Peters now and going to be fighting on the Limerick show. Is that show happening? Wasn't there talk of Lee fighting in Chicago instead?

 

Jaysus this is all very confusing. Who, what, where and when. More shows is good news. Now just need to get the head around whos doing what, where they are doing and when!

All good news. Only spanner in the works could be Pickering's end of the purse maybe? Who knows.

 

I've been told that my next fight will be on the 7th may but haven't been told where. All I know is it's a match room bill. When I seen there that dudey is out on the 7th may I was a little bit shocked but I reckon that must be a mistake.

I seen in the news letter today gavin prunty got a mention as a "cult hero"

 

That should be his nickname - i can just imagine Jimmy Lennon jnr

" and in the red corner, Gavin the inactive surfer Prunty"

 

:good

 

Farrell's doing a bit of shouting about this fight but can't seem to pick a weight. Started off as Super fly then on irish Boxing he is talking fly (which is Wiltons weight), but on his Facebook pages he tells Wilton he cant do Super fly even he is a Bantam at best.

If he can do 8st then get the right paperwork sortted out and prove he is Irish enough to fight for an Irish title. Luke wilton is more than willing to accomodate this fight and if its a Hunky dory's televised show as Kieran expects then brilliant, but if its a small hall show wilton will fight all the same.

BTW - no one ever bother to contact Team Alio when this was first posted and they are still spouting off about it in the press now but can't seem to use the phone to try and make the fights ? Team Alio will wait for the call.

 

Ignorance is bliss i suppose....

Don't know if its on there mind but thats the site. Very imaginative with naming things these northern chaps :deal could only have been more drab if they called it The Newspaper

 

wilton and farrell could end off fighting on a lindsay undercard with maloney promoting... but where does conlon who is also very good fit in ... does he fight the winner... do you think luke can beat conlon:thumbsup

 

John Duddy-Julio Cesar Chavez Junior Set For June 26th?

by James Slater - Julio Cesar Chavez and John Duddy; two exciting fighters who have had their names put together for quite a while now. According to BoxRec, the two middleweights will finally meet on June 26th, on the under-card of the Eric Morel-Jorge Arce WBO

This content is protected

bantamweight title clash in San Antonio, Texas.

Sure to be a good fight, very probably with plenty of two-way action, Duddy-Chavez has the look of a 50-50 fight; or a fight close to it anyway.. Duddy, the older man at age 30 and currently 29-1(18), is coming off three decent wins since his shock, upset loss at the hands of underdog Billy Lyell back in April of last year. Last time out, though, against Mexican light-middleweight Michael Medina, Duddy had a tough night's work; winning only via a hard-fought split verdict after ten-rounds. The Irishman will have to put on a better display if he's to defeat "The Son of a Legend."

Chavez Jr, sill only 24 and also still sporting an unbeaten record at 41-0-1(30), will be having his first fight back after being suspended for taking an illegal dietary substance. Winning on points over ten against Troy Rowland back in November, Chavez later flunked his post-fight test; being suspended by the WBC as a result. The Rowland fight was Chavez' first up at 160-pounds, and he will be looking to make a big return against Duddy.

Height and reach-wise, there is not too much between the two men. Duddy stands 5'11" and has a recorded reach of 74," while Chavez stands 6.0" and has an inch shorter reach also. I think we can expect to see both guys getting it on at close quarters and banging away to both head and body.

Chavez is arguably the better body puncher of the two and he may be a touch faster as well. Neither fighter is all that hard to hit, and this is one of the reasons the action figures to be so good to watch. Duddy has tried to box more and approach opponents in a more patient way recently, but he remains a fighter who is not that hard to either tag cleanly or drag into a war. Look for Chavez Jr to do both in June.

But, on the other hand, Duddy is sure to have big moments of success also. This is a tough one to pick indeed! I think a distance fight looks likely - neither guy is a one-punch KO artist, and despite the defensive lapses both men have shown, neither guy has shown a bad chin thus far.

I feel Chavez Jr will just nick it, with a hard-fought and highly entertaining split decision. One that may be so good it demands a rematch​

 

Wilton needs a eight rounder hopefully he gets it in may,Then we can talk about Irish titles,The way i see it beause of experience Wilton beats Farrell first to become super fly champ then is beaten for the title by Conlon in the first of a trilogy in Belfast

 

well what else is he but that?
