World 69kg Amature ratings. The hardest weigh class so far to rate, number 16 could be number one, allmost! The two strongest strands, Europe and the Americas are hard to seperate with Asia strong too and the rest nowhere. 1- Sapiyev-Kaz, World Bronxe, 2009 2- Zamkoyov- Russia, World silver, 2009 3- Banterur-Cuba, Olympic silver 4- Maestre- Venez.Ist Panam qualifer, winner 2011 5- Castrano- Argetine, American bronze 2010 6- Evans- GG, Euro gold, 2011 7- Bacskai- Hun,Euro Gold, 2010 8- Shelestyuk-Ukr- Euro bronze, 2010 9- Nurutdinov-Bel, Euro Silver, 2011 10- Vastine- France, Olympic Bronze, 11- Vikas- India, World Youth gold, 60kg 12-Tusunquiong- China- Asian gold, 2011 13- Svayev- Kaz, Asian Silver, 2011 14- McLoughlin-Ireland- EU silver, 2009 15- Kavlauskas- Lith, Euro Bronze, 2010 16-Kvachatadze- Georgia, Euro bronze, 2011 Several good fighters omitted like Kosimov(Uzb), Shidayev(Russia) Spence(USA) Mahmudov(Kaz) Sheehan(Ireland) Wojicki(Germany)Aliyev(Aze) Carvalho(Brazil) Lazarev(Ukraine) and I think St Pierre of Mauritus is now at 75kg.
It's actually a contradiction of Nazim Richardson's words, Nazim told Shane Mosley in his fight vs Antonio Margarito to 'Swim without getting wet', a seemingly impossible task, but that night Shane did just that.

Casey turmoil wont prevent explosive come back by Jonny Stapleton Willie Casey claims the turmoil and uncertainty of the last few weeks will not stop him coming back with a bang this Saturday night. The Limerick man returns to the ring for the first time since his world title lose to Guillermo Rigondeaux on the under card of Tyson Furys Belfast debut and on the back of a turbulent few weeks. However, Big Bang is confident the cancelation of his September 3 Limerick show and a last minute decision to turn down a possible European title fight with Carl Frampton will have no ill affect on his ring return. I am excited to be back on such a big show. I am really looking forward to it. The last few weeks were a little bit of a distraction, Casey told Mirror Sport. I was ready to take that European title fight, but we decided to stick to the three fight plan before chasing European honours. I was upset with a few things fans said, but thats boxing. I was focused on the fight before and I am now. I didnt effect my preparation and it wont it wont affect my performance. Casey was adamant he didnt want a easy return and experienced opponent Daniel Kodjo will certainly test him in the Kings Hall. You just have to look at his record to see how good he is and he hasnt taken this fight last minute. He has extra time to prepare. He knows a win over me will put him contention.You can be sure he is training hard to beat me.

Don't know anything about bowls or Arthur's boxing career but he's not a top quality handball player. I've seen him play and he's average. He was in a Junior B All Ireland final a year or two I think, might even have won it, but that's the lowest grade of adult championship. Just pulling you up there Tom!
According to Paddy snr the show in Dundalk is cancelled he got a call from the promoter to inform Paulie seemly to close to Rogie,s show so they are posponing to another date
Fair enough, what I know bout handball would only fill half a post stamp. Was only going on what Ive been told. Was also told his dad, Timmy is good, any truth there?
