    1. Not sure what plans Peters has for his next show.
    2. Dornal just answered that
    3. Permanently in Arnies - very close to inking a contract with a top promoter.
    4. On the McCloskey bill
    5. Licking his wounds and regrouping
    6. On the Burns-Laraya undercard in Glasgow
    7. See 1. but the Hyland might be doing their own show soon. MIGHT!
    8. See 7.
    9. See 1.
    10. Last I heard he was back in Mayo recovering from an unfortunate incident.

    Maybe other could add to that.

    What happens if Ward goes to the worlds and qualifies for London, then Egan wins the WSB.Would there have to be a box off to see who goes to London or could we possibly have 2 fighters in the same weight class?

    The WSB winners will be the unbeaten fighters. Egan won't be one of them, Nevin probably won't either despite doing well.

    If he can cut turf I'll support him as an Irish fighter. If he's good at stabbing (Limerick city style) that will do me also.
