    fair enough points but at this stage of his career where does dunne go? to featherweight sub world level? back to euro super bantam? he wont get hurt against wayne and make some $$$. he doenst have many options open to him imo and wayne is a decent one


    where in your opinion should dunne go? who should he fight?

    McCullough and Dunne are from different eras. Any match up should be strictly hypothetical.

    Prime Dunne vs. Prime McCullough, who wins?

    With regards Dunne's next fight, I think he should fight someone of the Faccio calibre as a confidence builder before thinking about titles or bigger fights.

    Faccio. The guy Dunne fought the November before last. He was like 16-3, didn't pose too much of a threat but wasn't a tomato can. That's the type of fight I think Dunne should take on road to recovery from a demoralising knockout defeat.

    TERRY LAWLESS DIES AGE 76

    GAVIN SET FOR McDONAGH TEST
    http://www.sportinglife.com/boxing/news/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=boxing/09/12/23/manual_152351.html

    Sad news about Lawless, even more so on Christmas Eve. Lawless along with "the cartel"[Duff, Barrett,Astair and Levine] where the major players in British boxing in the 70s and 80s, until a young Frank Warren came along to challenge their monopoly.

    On a lighter note I thought I would post this You Tube piece, on KOs. A considerable amount of the boxers on show are Irish.
