    That is ****ing terrible news. What is going on with these kids in Belfast lads? Seems like some talented young lad with everything to look forward to commits suicide every month there. Truly worrying. RIP lad!

    I meant o Donnell not O Brien...apologies
    I think Heffron qualifies for irish title (through his parents or grandparents)does he hold an irish license.I have afeeling he does,
    and prizefightrs do still use subs but they give the beaten figter the option first.

    Great show, shame to hear that big bang would consider retiring. This time last year he was still european champ. He should never have taken the rigo fight, he could still be euro champ now and looking forward to a defence against frampton.

    looks like it was written by a 2 year old! i'm no spelling genius but the amount of mistakes in that report are shocking! Nice opponent on paper for willie if it comes off but listening to his interview on the radio show he doesnt sound too confident about the fight going ahead.

    Not knocking the site but everything is just so poorly written but fair play for the effort.

    However, in this case my first instincts were right and he won't be fighting Economides. I straight away said to myself that Economdies like to be matched soft, would want a lot of money for this fight and the budget isn't there and finally he has a title fight on his own on his own promoters bill so wouldn't be likely to pull out of that.
