    Only 21/22

    Could be a big heavy even for a pro

    the fight could be for wbf gaelic light heavy title as healy is the irish light heavy champ
    wasnt der talk of healy and managhan fighting for that title in new york on the 17th march so doubt hed be too willing to give it up

    in vietnam just passin through johhny ...lovely intersetin place but wont be too sad to go home as food is runnin through me

    Its a tough question tbh because Con at 6'4 is not that developed for hw/s-hw.If there is such a thing Con it a light S-HW at the moment any way.To answer the question eventually yes IMO but not at the moment.

    That's a mind boggling piece of business then.

    Neither are overly popular fighters in terms of ticket sales and will be unlikely to sell 10 tickets between them for this fight and it's an expensive business put on an Irish title fight, even more expensive when it's in Liverpool and moreso again when you factor in Healys bit of stepaside money.

    Bizarre but fair play to them. I'll be at the fight for sure.

    Healy vacated the title around the time he went to france to give way for sweeney and waldron to fight for it in galway, waldron got cut in germany so mcdonagh and sweeney were to box for it but it was said sweeney wanted to fight john jo finnegan but the Bui said paddy mcdonagh wud cfight him as in my opinion is more fair as paddy deserves his shot, summit happened behind the scenes and sweeney wudnt box, so they asked waldron to fight mcdonagh in liverpool and waldron wont turn down any fight.... best of luck to both,
