    There was abit of controversy in Waldrons one, the english lads said if it was ruled a deliberate headbutt as it was John Waldron should have been disqualified but ND it stood.I'm told they will fight again in the dolphil show in Castlebar.Was there only 3 contests?

    Terrific news for Belfast boxing. And with Rogie expecting a 10,000 crowd at the Odyssey, plus McCloskey/Witter for the vacant European title fight expected at The Kings Hall, Belfast is once again at the forefront of Irish Boxing.

    I read in the star that the waldron decision was changed and John was given the win on a disqualification.This fight/result summed up the whole promotion i think,poor opposition ,badly ran and confusion from start to finish.I like Francis Barrett so i hope he learns from this and moves on.

    But he will have sampled that type of atmosphere at least i know its going to be the other way round in belfast. Gomez also proved its not impossible to overcome the crowd. Anyone betting on lyndsey?
    Its too tight for me too make a bet.
    Any good guest lined up for tomorow paddy ? douchebag

    Yeah, Would have been good to see Andy in Germany!
    Still at least he back on the march and i hope Manny's right about the eye and he can get a few more fights under his belt without these long layoffs.
