    Hey pipe wrenched it looks to be the 12th of July for the next card on RTE but there is also a card on TV3 (one of our other stations) on the same night (i dont think this will be streamed online though)

    You'll be pleased to hear Bernard Dunne will be fighting on this card

    Im not sure who else is on show on the RTE card

    dont expect too much from dunne brothers...he's on way downhill...
    as an irish i'll be willing him on...but, i think he's gonna struggle to get back to where he was before kiko..

    I'll be going on the night to see El Rebellio Perez . He wasnt great against the Big Pole (as has been said before he looked like he wanted the rounds) but i have no doubt he can step it up

    good ol' irish cynicism at its best, i know what you're saying doug,but i must say i was vastly impressed with him against machado and i feel he can reach the euro level again it all depends on the opponent because dunne has never coped well with a fighter that exerts pressure on him.

    well...against machado he appeared to start cold - again !!...i would have thought he'd be very warmed up before fights now...
    could it be bernard also has a stamina problem?
    i hope i'm wrong about him...

    i've said it before on here before him being poor in the late rounds,he is often on last legs and just has enough footwork to get away from the power shots,pity it wasnt the same against martinez but he fought so stupidly in that first minute it was crazy.

    i think i had dunne winning the fight 7-3 and i had him 2-1 down after the first 3,i agree with you in that aspect and perhaps a more formidable puncher won't give dunne the same room for escape.

    Moffet has it all to do tonite.I dont see him having much of a chance. Im sure Bernard Dunne will be a interested viewer tonight, as top of the bill is Munroe defeding Dunnes old European title.Dunne has stated he will be ready to challenge Munroe soon.
