Irish Boxing

Dublin for Macklin Vs Lee seems the wisest option :deal

 

Who would the neutral irish fan shout for,LEE OR MACKLIN?????

 

Frampton v Santa Cruz

Macklin v Lee

Croker in the summer!! If it wasnt for Gareth Brooks!

A fight I am looking to seeing in Conlon v McCullagh on Friday. I give T Mac a real chance of the upset!

 

I suppose if from Limerick, Lee...if Tipperary or Roscommon, Macklin.

Anywhere else, :conf

Varying by individual, I'd guess, whoever has the style one likes more.

 

Frampton vs Santa Cruz has been confirmed for the summer if both win their next bouts.

I'll be honest and say i'm looking forward more to this fight then the Froch-Groves rematch.

 

Me too...should be a beauty alright. Just so long as it comes off!
Could Mijares upscuttle the whole thing by beating LSC?
Or Quigg get there ahead of Carl..I'm getting paranoid now...!!!

 

That's easy Dutchie. A fight between a Birmingham lad and a Londoner?
The Irish will follow the Birmingham lad of course!!!

Seriously I would expect the "neutrals" to cheer for the better fighter.

ladbrokes have much better odds than that:good

 

Depends who you're backing Fra :hey

The PaddyPowers odds have changed since I posted that.

 

Hughie Myers' mates have been busy - he's been backed down from 14-1 to 9-2 with PP

 

Yep, that's him.
