    Quigley looked good last night. Hope to see him fight in Dublin this year.

    Who are they? I honestly would have gotten the impression that you had little hope for anyone bar KT.
    I can’t do much addressing about that point as I don’t know enough about it. I know Galahad and BJS failed tests but I never delved much into the details about either.
    I’m sure Quigley is protecting himself in that regard. I’d say he’s gotten some great spars in that gym.

    Frampton Burnett Ormond Keeler etc etc etc I great time for all our boxers....I was just being realistic about the chances of producing a world champ.....how incredibly hard it is to get to the top. Ryan Burnett will probably take over as Ireland's best after frampton....

    Carl reckons he'd best Barry

    [url]http://www.irish-boxing.com/frampton-predicts-how-he-would-fare-against-mccullough-dunne-and-mcguigan/[/url]

    Josh obviously took more out of Carl than we realised .....

    Barry all wrong for Carl he was physically big like warrington, hits harder than Kiko, savage body attack, underrated battering ram jab, 15 round engine....utterly relentless, granite chin, hugehheart, all wrong for you Carl, sorry mate. Actually more wrong for Carl than josh. A lot more wrong. Barry would be kryptonite for Carl.

    Cant agree with what you're saying. Your hero is a drug cheat and will get battered once he steps up

    I couldn't get the article to load. Thought you were talking about Barry aka Kid Galahad haha. Also in my defence I was recovering from a liquid lunch. ☺

    Barry would break Carl down for a stoppage no doubt

    I do think size is the massive decider between the two, Carls skilled enough to hang with him

    Barry would be a bit too much for him over 15 rounds...over 12 too!

    Buzarrely going strictly by the scales it was aprox Zero! Barry "walked around" at about 10 and a quarter stone, as does Carl. But Carl is a 'chubby' 10stone 4lbs whereas barry would still be very lean at 10 and a quarter. Barry is just naturally that little bit bigger, bigger joints bones bigger wrists bigger fists etc. (Pedroza was bigger again, saw him in tight jeans ant t shirt and there wasn't a spare ounce on him and he weighed 10st 7lbs! ) But Barry was a very rugged guy with that rawboned natural country_boy genetic strength that you can't buy. Very tenacious fighter , Barry.he wouldn't leave Carl alone and he'd get to him after a while.

    2 shows on in 2 night the way i see it the caliber of boxers in the belfast show is far superior but the dublin show might have the more exciting matches Cummings versus Keller aside,
    Anybody on here going to either??
