Irish Boxing

so has halpin retired from the boxing game?

 

It's a shame really. He used to be knocking fellas out for fun up in the stadium when he was only a young fella. I always got confused because when he was 14/15 he went by Ciaran Crossan rather than McCauley. Only found out it was the same fella a couple years after. I remember seeing him knock some fella out cold when he was only about 14 :shock:

 

Been offline for the last week, but had a great night with Len and Kevin watching Haye-Vlad - thought that was an intriguing fight, really enjoyed it and Haye did well to get through the 12 rounds despite taking good shots off vlad. And thanks for the Guinness Slappy - beers on me for the next one!

Interesting to read about all of the potential Irish shows coming up, I will keep my fingers crossed that we do not encounter more of the nonsensical double, treble shows on the same night - some good fights being lined up.

And RIP George Kimball - who else writes like that man - no one - I will really miss his writing, different league.:good

 

Casey on why he signed with Hyde
http://www.irish-boxing.com/2011/07/casey-on-a-hy-after-signing-new-contract/

 

Is he still training with Sutclife?

 

No hes going to be based in belfast with Paul Mc Cullough.Probably for the best in the long run.

 

3 fights before Christmas Casey says hes been promised? Wonder if Hyde will take him to Central/Eastern Europe like he did a bit with Heffron. Couple of fights in quick succession would be no harm once the opposition isnt totally **** poor.

 

im not 100 percent sure but i think Hyde is planning them all in Limerick- ill double check!

I went to the boxing training thing anto fitz is doing last night- i am in bits today! but poping up for an other hour now! i am assuming boxers do that and more regularly-i have a new found respect -honestly the warm up alone was like a cool down towards death! i was dying!!

 

Hell of a KO by Janks Trotter on ESPN Friday Night Fights last night, just saw it on TV. Here you go:

Not the best-known Irish name but he wears Ireland shorts and has himself announced as the Irish-Candaian. Del Boy must be chuffed.

No fluke either - http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=535304&cat=boxer

 

Nice KO.
Not a great irish name though........

 

No hes left Phil.

I wonder how long it will be before all the truth surrounding that world title fight comes out :think

 

Truth?

 

Come on now you know thats not nice..You gotta spill.

 

Me want's to know as well?:huh:huh:huh

 

theres no secret about some of the dodgey dealings dolphil were up to :deal

Why do you think Willie has gone with Hyde and not Sutcliffe and Halpin??
