Irish Boxing

Fra, they have played ireland many times. They are one of the hardest working bands in terms of touring.

 

thanks ardy...yeah, be interested in that..

love chatting about boxing ardy...except on the comments here {on the articles on the front page} and other forums...things get heated very quickly...
reading articles about floyd mayweather on the font page..someone adds a comment that he's ducking cotto..someone says 'your stupid' and the reply saying they're goona fook his mother or something...
so..i find myself holding back on my views when posting comments there sometimes...

anyway...back on topic...ever heard of a real old time ballina near sligo boxer called dick hearns...used to be a sparring partner of jack dempsy {now..thats going back !!}...went on to be manager of sligo rovers football team?...cant find much about him on the net...but i know his son, who is now in his 60's, and the photos and memoriblia is amazing that he has....his dad sitting round a table in new york for a meal..with dempsey sat beside him..and other famous faces from boxing back then...except i forget now who they were

ok...doug out..

 

yeah...might go to that in castlebar...my mate vinny {sligo kid..mentioned further up the thread} works as the corner inspector for the boxing board these days...
little left of topic..but when i seen dunne getting sparked by martinez..i really thought that he {martinez} was a huge huge talent...very surprised that he got beat in that last fight..

 

doug...is all tickets not sold out for castlebar...i think dunne was caught cold that night..it can happen to any fighter...its how he comes back from it ...will prove his worth

 

ml..i checked out there tour dates...they are liked in germany...u agree...they are playing mostly in germany next month...next time they play in Ireland...i will try to c them...i will buy some CDs also...i think u have just made a convert ml.

 

They just got done playing ireland and great Britian. On every album they cover a couple traditional songs with their punk twist. last album they have Flanagan's Ball featuring Spider Stacy of the Pogues and yes the legendary Ronnie Drew of the Dubliners.

 

i wish i had have known that...i hope they will return soon..i prefer live music...when i can get it..

so mightnt be any harm to send it through again.
Bobby's son is a pretty tidy boxer. Was Irish champion last year but lost this year in the semis to John Joe Nevins younger brother!
I'll be a bit quiet on here for the next couple of weeks as going on my holiday's but hopefully will have more about a club night when I get back!

 

the nevin family are definatly a cert for dominating the amateur ranks in boxing in ireland for the next few years.aye im the same,off back to aul' scotland next week for me finals and then hopefully my heart will be content with as much irish boxing as i need over the summer.

so where you heading on holidays?vegas?expenses paid?

i sent the email to that bobby-1968 so it should be grand.
