    I think Timsy corbett fight would be entertaining give corbett a chance to win back the title he never lost in the ring! Casey galahad and Fitzy vs rea or okane be decent fight
    s also then Ormond vs Andy Murray be great scrap!

    JJ mc Donagh does a lot of sparring with Magee so chances are he will be on wouldnt mind seeing him and fitz or him and rea.

    Tbh I would be really surprised if Magee fight is in Belfast. As much as I would love it to be, can see them taking it back to Denmark

    Jaysus, I know he's not the biggest personality, but could he not fill a hall in Belfast? So underappreciated and such a credit to Irish sport.

    Boxing is banned in Norway. I really cant see a Magee headliner in Belfast in July, no chance, it will lose money.

    I know it is Bren, hence the reason I was surprised to see it mentioned as the location of two of Magee's fight in the article.

    It's one thing filling a hall but its another trying to recoup the £200k laid out for the purses.

    Surely Magee wouldnt have shelled that out on a speculative whim. He must have something lined up. Only thing is is that Emerald Promotions have their Irish title bill planned for that date and must be worried about a potential clash.

    Yeah Paddy G def more suited to the pro game,
    Im sure emerald can shift it around,Their shows are generally filled by friends of the boxers rather than general boxing public (each lad selling 100 tickets or so)therefore a week one way or the other should be fine for them hopefully.Pity we cant do it down south.
