    Right guys I'll try and put the result of tonight's fights in Cardiff on my twitter page. That is as long as I can get coverage in the Motorpoint Arena cos there wasn't any in the O2.

    If Lindsay wins next week, a contest with Smith will be next.


    Good luck to all our boxers tonight. I'm hearing Murray is in the condition of his life, and has been looking superb in sparring. This is a fight Andy can win, and I beleive he will win, and body shots will be the key to his victory. Really looking forward to this bill, I wish I was going:verysad.

    Personally I don't think the Maidana fight is a good one for Dudey. Styles make fights and all that craic but I just don't like the match up at all.

    Golden girl Taylor claims fourth European Union title
    Michael O'Neill, 4 June 2011

    Katie Taylor won her fourth European Union Gold medal at the Spodek Sports Hall in Katowice today with a convincing 25 – 9 win over the host nation’s Karolina Graczyk in front of a Polish audience who had come along to support all 10 of their fighters on finals day.
    There was little for the Polish fans to cheer for though in the 60kg final as Bray’s three times World, four times European champion added a fourth successive European Union title to her impressive , ever growing collection of Gold medals.
    Taylor was in charge from the outset here and by the end of round one was 5-1 ahead. She continued in the second,where she left off and there was more of the same in round three with the athletic Taylor well in control and 17-6 ahead at the end of the third.
    Hardly surprisingly Graczyk gave her all in the fourth and final round but another fine round from the Irish champion who added another 8 points whilst only conceding 3 meant that Taylor was champion once more – on a score line of 25-9.
    The other Irish medallists, Kilkenny’s Lauragh O’Neill and Taylor’s Bray club mate, Laoise Traynor were also presented with their bronze medals today.
    So another Golden homecoming for Katie Taylor when the team arrives at Dublin Airport at 23.30 tonight. Next is the European Championships in Rotterdam in mid-October .
    Gold today also for England’s Nicola Adams against the Polish champion and current European champion Karolina Michalczuk in the 51kg final.
    After today’s final, IABA’s Director of Boxing Dominic O’Rourke added :”Katie was absolutely brilliant. She produced another fantastic performance today. She showed great balance and coordination in the final. She peaked over the last two days at these Championships and we’re thrilled with the win.”
    A delighted Irish Team Manager, Majella Loftus paid this tribute to Taylor : “”Katie boxed out of her skin. She was 5-1 ahead after the first round and she just kept getting stronger and stronger after that. It was a fantastic all round performance.”

    Whats the story with the ****** fighters on the card I wouldnt of expected that ****** would let them fight for another promotor. OR is this going to be a co promotion with ******? :think I would expect ****** will be over for the fights it might end up leading to a ****** card in Dublin some time this year.

    Couldnt tell ya, i know Paddy and Paschal are on good terms and paschal trains and i think manages them both, And im sure ****** wouldnt mind his fighters staying busy, especially at home,

    1 thing i do know is, its a Hyland show and not co-promotion with ****** whatsoever........
