Irish Boxing

I believe this was answered over a week ago european title fight out in castlebar.....

 

I like it its better than on e of those generic one fits all usernames

 

Suppose it's got something to it alright.

But when every story begins with.... Jamie Kavanagh promises to make a nuisance of himself tonight.....
I'll crack!

 

You mean "Casper" or "the Flurry"

 

I remember the Flurry alright but one night he was introduced as Robert 'Robbie' Murray. I remember thinking to myself that it was fcuking tragic!

 

Really? Didn't catch that at all. :happy Happy days. Can't wait. If it's Kiko it will be an all out war!

Surprised it's not in Limerick though, UL arena would sell better I would think.

 

Well I have to take credit for "the Flurry", labelled him it after the Ceri Hall win in Belfast when he lashed Hall against the ropes with a dose of flurries that would make your head spin to ensure a hard fought win - good scrap actually. Not sure if anyone remembers that fight, there wasnt many in the Odessey at the time.

But yeah "Robbie!!!" - better off just dropping the Robert.

 

Ill be glad if its castlebar.I hope it is anyways because its nearwhere i live,its convient enough for me to go to the fight

 

ha ha wat fight was his knickname announced as robbie dats gas!!, trained with him all my time in st.matthews since i was 8 years old he's mad, he's working as fitness instructor now doing very well. check out his video clips on his facebook very funny! or www.robbiesfitness.com

 

it might have been the fight in the Burlo I'm not 100% sure.

 

Thats the first I heard of Casey in Castlebar. As already mentioned, Limerick would have seemed like the logical venue.
On another topic- Tyrone McCullagh won that 10k run. Dont know were McCloskey, Barnes or O'Kane finished. He won it in 32mins. Thats fierce pace...

 

Thats some going alright. I think the fastest I ever managed 10k in was about 45 minutes and I was be fit to be stretchered away after that. As far as I know Carlos is pretty nippy when it comes to the road work.

Seriously impressive stuff from Tyrone though!

 

Hyland leading race for EBU shot
31 August 2010 - Jonny Stapleton Paulie Hyland has stolen pole position in the Irish race to fight for the European super bantamweight title, as the EBU revealed Willie Casey is ineligible to challenge for the continental strap.
Ever since Brian Peters explained he would offer either Casey or Hyland a shot at the winner of Kiko Martinez and Arsen Martirosyan’s EBU title fight-which takes place in Dublin on September 11 - speculation as to which Irish man will get to challenge for the belt once owned by Bernard Dunne has been rife.
And news that Prizfighter winner Casey has been pulled off the upcoming Carl Frampton undercard sparked rumours that the all action Limerick pugilist had won the fight to challenge for the prestigious strap.
But the EBU last week stressed that despite beating EBU Number 9, Emiliano Salvini, in City West in August ‘Big Bang’ Casey is not ranked in their new top 20 and subsequently is not eligible to fight for an European title.
Irish and EU champion Hyland on the other hand is ranked Number 5 and is a suitable candidate and if things remain as they are he will challenge for the prestigious strap at Casey’s expense.
“The winner of Kiko Martnez vs Arsen Martirosyan will be allowed to make voluntary defence with a boxer selected among those rated. Paul Hyland will be acceptable challanger as he is EU champion and ranked in the top 20. As concerns Willie Casey, unfortunately at present he is not rated in our most recent ratings and subsequently at present is ineligible to fight for the European title. The ratings were revised on August 12 and Casey hasn't breached the top 20,” an EBU official told the Irish Mirror.








Looks like Hyland is next, Casey and Castlebar must be a mistake:deal

 

I think Paulie deserves it. Others will disagree but I think he does. So why the f**k has Casey pulled out of the Ulster Hall bill?!

 

he seems like a bit of a sleaze in that video on his website like hes trying to get birds to cheat on their husbands!
