Irish Boxing

I hate to disagree with anyone rocking a Mabuza av.

 

I thought it was tight, the frenchman should have been up after the first, Conlan nicked the second and definitely won the third. 4 points might have been a bit steep, but thought he was good for the win. Couldn't really argue either way.

 

Thought Conlan lost the first, won the second and won the third. He held his left hand very high to the side of his guard, blocking a lot of the shots. Didn't throw as much, but I thought he threw the better quality and just nicked it. Probably won it in the last minute TBH

 

Haha hey man, ya took a break there for a while, no particular reason. Back reading the board again but usually just lurk now.

 

I went missing meself there for a few months. Good to see ya back anyway.:good

 

:good

Anybody see Rairez beat Selby? He looks a seriously classy fighter, cant see Conlon getting past him in the semi, its going to be really tough

 

I thought Conlon definitely won it. His defence was so tight and he was catching Ouballi with the left hook at will ffs! Thought he definitely won the second and third. First was the closest round imo

 

good deserved win... but conlan will have 2 fite better 2 beat the cuban:good

 

If Barnes wins tomorrow we're in with a chance of finishing top of the medal table for boxing

 

think the brits are on for 6

 

What strategy will Billy Walsh formulate for Conlon to beat the Cuban:huh

Should be a good fight against the Cuban.

 

Hope Barnes does win cos am heading down there 2moro. Reckon the indian's style could suit Barnes in this one.
