    I don't know behind the scenes what the heck is going on here! But if it ain't broke - dont fix it. This shi*T about Billy Walsk not gettting paid to do a job he has been doing and the whole snub situation needs to be clarified. I think RTE Primte Time should look into this to be honest. It's tax payers money that's funding it and if both sides feel their in the right they won't have any problems coming on national tv to debate their case :twisted:

    Regarding the Darren Sutherland story.

    I believe the most logical explanation for his death was suicide. I dont think all these conspiracy theories circulating are helping anyone.

    I think his family are obviously still grieving and finding it hard to simply accept that he killed himself and so are looking for answers, which is obviously their right and is to be respected. But for me, when all is said and done i dont think anything will come of it....

    Well, they are acting on the advice of others. If there are suspicions and the autopsy was inadequate then they have to really, for peace of mind if nothing else.

    It says on boxrec that Patrick Hylands fighting an undefeated Romanian in Bucharest on 15th December.Sounds like it could be a tough fight for Hyland if it does happen

    Yeah certainly a step up. I just did a quick check and Simon is above Hyland in the EBU ratings. It would be a move towards a shot at the EBU title maybe.

    It will be hard to pick up any idea of form going into the fight but I'll go for it at a stretch!

    Viorel Simon UD12 David Kiilu last summer
    Martin Lindsay v David Kiilu on Sept 11

    We'll see how well Lindsay deals with Kiilu and that might give us an idea of what Hyland will be up against out in Romania

    It says on the RTE website that they will be showing three European title fights involving Irish fighters.

    I know Magee is one, who are the other two?

    McCloskey and either Hyland or Casey I'm guessing.
