Irish Boxing

Easy spin down the road, or rail, for you....

 

1hr 30 min drive... over nite stay...drinks a plenty....all sorted....and a big KO win for andy:good:good


will u be there urself:good

 

Can't say im too excited about this one Fra, so prob not.

But then again I've been known to change my mind. We'll see....

You prob right about big ko win for Andy. This guy was selected very cleverly IMO. Andy looks awful against fellow southpaws, on a round by round basis, but bottom line is they are always gonna be there for that big right hook...and as Gerry, I think it was, said one time when they narrowly missed Maggie I think, " ye have to be lucky all the time...we only have to be lucky once"...Andy has the equaliser in that right hook, no doubt. He only has to be lucky once!!

But with Andys vulnerabilities, every challenger has a chance.

It will probably be a dreadful scuffle to watch from a fans point of view up that point though....

 

Iv heard that iaba cut a deal with aiba that allows do I and joe ward to still compete at international tournaments despite being apb boxers


Does anyone have more info on this, anything at all, would be greatly appreciated

 

Looking forward to a big Dublin show and Andy's homecoming world title defence, it will be a great showcase for upcoming Irish talent, especially Pascal's gym.

This makes good business sense and hopefully if Lee comes through this unscathed it will set up a big domestic world title clash with BJS in T****nd Park in the summer. More money in an outdoor summer clash for both fighters.

 

Great news if this turns out to be right. Dublin in the spring and Limerick in the summertime. I would imagine we are looking at fRaNk ****** lou DiBella co promotion. Does that raise the prospect of Chris Ubank jr v Spike. I know its very wrong to get to fair ahead of ourselves but I would love to see Andy achieving some lasting success.

 

Would LOVE to see CEj v Spike. Now THATS a fight.

 

gerry never said that... it was P.O'Neildeal:good

 

con sheehan has turned pro:good

 

where, with who?:admin

 

Of course it was Fra....wonder whatever became of ol p anyway......
U

 

Andy suggested that fight in March might be in US.:|

Con Sheehan could be our best Heavy pro for a hundred years if he gets the right training and management.

 

Did he have any notable wins at an international level?
