Irish Boxing

So its politically motivated?
Let me get this straight, you---a syuposed 'Republican' won't support a boxer from Clones in Co. Monaghan, i(n the Irish Republic)...yet you do support Carl Frampton, from the land of the red-white-and-blue kerbstones, Tigers Bay in loyalist East Belfast???
You also support Andy Lee - born and reared in London.....

 

Dún na nGall Abu. Quigley looked for real tonight.

 

That he did. 6-0 (6) with fire in his belly.

 

Quigley vs Conrad Cummings will be absolutely huge fight for Irish boxing in a few years time and a cracking matchup.

 

What's the deal w/ Cummings?

 

Cummings is a good prospect, immensely strong with a good entertaining pro style. He got some good scalps as an amateur but never got the breaks because he was always second choice and in Quigley's shadow for major tournaments. But he's doing well as a pro now being signed with a good team in the McGuigans and he is fighting on big cards.

He's the same age as Quigley, fought Quigley as an amateur, both are roughly at the same point in their careers and their styles would mesh really well together. They should meet at some point imo.

 

How'd the amateur meets go?

 

Im not sure how many times they met as amateurs, but Quigley last outpointed Cummings in the 2013 Irish championships from what I remember.

Quigley was a slightly better amatuer like, but Cummings had wins

over two Olympic silver medalists in Esquiva Falcao and Carlos Banteur Suáre, and he also gave Sergey Dervechenko a tough fight in the WSB, back when he was only a 21 year old kid. Theres plenty of footage of Cummings on youtube if you want to have a look.

 

support barry mcguigan .... m8 u mite as well ask me why i dont support rinty monaghan ... as neither have boxed during my life timeatsch.... and btw frampton is from north belfast:good

 

Yeah Kennedy is 30, said it in an interview at the weigh in yesterday

 

Any TV for Sutcliffe Jnr vs. Portailler, anyone know?

 

No there won't be, just a small hall show (which Sutcliffe has said will be his last). Show being live tweeted atm. 40-36 UD wins for Craig O'Brien and Niall Kennedy so far. Kennedy beat Matovu, good debut opponent for him

 

Cheers.

 

Sutcliffe has his man down in the 1st

 

:think The Frenchman has never been stopped in twenty-two bouts.

Nice statement if Jnr can get the job done here.
