Hyde now has 3 guys Rigodeaux as we all know but he also has a super middle (like Garcia) and a heavy (like Perez) i heard the split was mutual but i just wonder is he looking for guys that could possibly derail the Cubans.Conspiracy theories are always the most fun to think about.
Thanks for that Jonny. Here's the EU's ranking list for Featherweight at the moment: 1 Martin LINDSAY 2 Cyril THOMAS 3 John SIMPSON 4 Alex MISKITRICHIAN 5 Viorel SIMION 6 Alberto SERVIDEI 7 Massimo MORRA 8 Paul TRUSCOTT 9 Jamie ARTHUR Giuseppe LAGANA 10 Patrick HYLAND 11 Marcel MEYERDIERCKS 12 Sofiane TAKOUCHT 13 Paul APPLEBY 14 Akaash BHATIA 15 Sergio BLANCO 16 Giampiero CONTESTABILE 17 Stephen SMITH 18 Francisco URENA 19 Samir KASMI
Puca I don't think so, he has just come across some good guys that where looking a chance in the Pro ranks. If the Cubans are as good as was touted before, they will become stars no matter who their manager is. Gary Hyde has also signed Paddy McGarrity (who makes his pro debut on the same show) Super Featherweight.
funny you should say pickering not having much interest in the title it was him who put in for it first and hyland was asked would he challeng him for it and obviously team hyland jumped at it, then pickering pulled out, heard he reinstated himself after he was made a nice offer but imo he must have had 2nd taughts didnt want to be ko,d again, didnt think peters was pulling the strings on this either
I don't mind saying, all the information of the last day brought to this thread has been "pure gold".Keep it coming lads and well done. IRISH AMATEURS ADVANCE IN AZERBAIJAN http://www.rte.ie/sport/boxing/2010/0426/amateurs.html DUDDY HITS L.A http://www.fightnews.com/?p=44137 PRIZEFIGHTER DRAW ANNOUNCED http://www.irish-boxing.com/stories/april10/apr10_corbett_prizefighter_draw.html
according to the EBU peters is the promoter? He was waxing lyrical about Pajo after he fought on his last show. he also talked about getting him a fight with Kiko- maybe he is working with Pajo now???
Any opponents arranged for the show in belfast on the 7th.Wonder who will be fed to Perez for his comeback fight?
Froch and Abraham have agreed to fight at a neutral venue so Ireland may not be out of the question. Heres hoping someone will jump on this opportunity. I doubt it would be on in the U.S as the time difference would put off Euro fans as they would have to stay up until all hours.
Hopefully it is at least in Europe, rather than the US, so we can watch it live at a decent hour.:good
