    In any case it will soon be all over. You know from your towns experience of a major gang feud a few years ago....then it was the Keane collopys vs McCarthy dundons, where are they now?
    Once the main men are in jail or dead it will Peter out.....until the next one....

    Apple don't owe Ireland 13 million, we are just been asked to collect for other EU contries.

    The point is that we Irish are perfectly happy to act as a tax haven laundering billions of tax € £ $ etc on behalf of us multinationals, all for the sake of a few lousy jobs on the one hand while pretending to be loyal European on the other! Likewise we are quite happy to allow literally millions...at least 2,500,000 ....us troops pass through our airport at Shannon on the one hand while pretending to be neutral on the other. All for the sake of a few lousy jobs at an otherwise unviable airport!

    But if a dozen or so working class lads try to advance themselves in boxing with the help of an outfit that is rumoured....only rumoured mind....to have a totally unproven connection to drug money everyone gets excited about that.

    Can you say "double standards"?

    ( and its billions Matt, not millions. The "b" in for the "m" there is very important)

    This is a million, Matt: 1,000,000
    This is a billion: 1,000,000,000

    You see those extra zeroes? They're very important.....:)

    You sound just like some of the boxers that have signed, "has the man been convicted" ? So that makes it alright that he's never been convicted. Answer one question then. Why is he on the run in Dubai afraid to come back to Ireland ?

    You're talking about Daniel Kinahan moorser?
    Are you saying he is still involved in MTK? And this "new management" is just a front? Do you have any evidence?

    Here is the answer to your one question:
    I don't know that he IS "on the run in Dubai", moorser...but let's assume you're right and he is, OK? No sane person would put their lives in the hands of a system as corrupt as our Irish ...er..."justice" system. If I was hated and vilified a fraction of what DK is.....id be in Dubai too! Look what our "justice" system did and continues to do.to people like Nicky kelly, the mcbreartys, frank short, John carty, ian Bailey, and countless other innocent people too numerous to mention....none of whom were hated even a fraction as much as DK!

    Look the chap admitted as much on Twitter that he's on the run . He was replying to a journalist from the star Mick O'Toole. Take your head out of the sand. The economics of mtk mean it's a loss making exercise, Danny Vaughan the boxing trainers wife has supposedly taken over, a woman who has a bit of a colourful past herself in the world of gangland and has zero history of managing boxers let alone a stable of 100+, enough said .

    It would appear so, boxrec have it down as a draw anyway,As you said def not what he would have hoped for but 6 rounds in the bag none the less,
    The lack of detail and reports available to the average boxing fan from last nights show highlights the folly of this silly blanket ban,

    This will make Cummings a big favourite if true. Maybe Luke can clarify things for us on here?

    Alrite lads they scored it a draw but footage be there he nicked one round at best weird decision but good to get rounds in , last minute change of opponent he came in at 12st 9 pound I was to weigh in at 12 2 for original opponent and had same day weight in two meals and loads fluids came in at 12 5. Tough lad in fairness to him gave me great workout and only boxed light heavy last weekend against a guy with 8-1 record and got stoppage win.

    Rounds in the bank and a warning that can’t leave Cummings fight anyway close. Hand and shoulder held up great so a lot of positives going into April. Good to get rounds in after being out 6 months well needed.
