    They have been doing it for around 6weeks now. The main reporter is nicky Fullerton (jackies son). There's a sinky says coloum and a section where it asks Irish boxing folk things like, best fight they have ever seen, favourite boxer, best chin in boxing etc... Mcguigans, dave boy mccauley, john breen and a few others have done it. Big rogie done it this week and gave his views on David haye

    Boys get ready for Paddy Cronan promotions... he made Prunty a legend before he has even fought 10 fights. and he all but made Sweeney v Timms, as im sure Paddy would put it 'one of the greatest domestic fights of all time':yep. Get this lad a contract with the Hylands and we'll be seeing world title fights in the o2 sooner than you think:happy

    Thanks for the heads up on that Carl - that sounds like a good wee read on a Friday. I was talking to Rogie during the week, he is going to the Haye fight and thinks Ruiz looks in good shape, he was saying that as Haye is looking a bit bigger, even putting on one or two pounds makes a difference to your speed. I will put the article up in a couple of days

    Kieran has the paperwork I assure you. He and his younger brother are gagging a fight in Ireland, especially as his brother is too young to turn over in the UK.

    He isnt trying to be disrespectful, just wants to fight the guy and have the title on the line.

    So what if he boxed for England when he was young? Is that what determines someones nationality now?

    p.s. for the record I wouldnt be so ignorant to call anyone a Plastic Paddy to be honest.

    p.p.s. When are the McDonaghs out next?
