http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/commonwealth_games/delhi_2010/9078444.stm This is the last round of the Ward contest. What a great day for Belfast boxing. The Commonwealths Games gets huge publicity in the north, so it all contributes favourably to the sports image, the back pages of our local papers will be plastered in boxing articles. EDIT You might have to go into the actual BBC site to view this.
McBride was in awful condition last night. I dont give a **** ****s like that shouldnt be left in the ring.
got the press release on this it just says its his first title fight and they have a presser in the ulster hall
It's boxing, I wouldnt be suprised. Booth is British champion, the Commonwealth is vacant and the Irish. Paulie Hyland maybe?
I reckon its for the Celtic title. I wouldnt mind if it was for the Irish title but that may well be a fight early. I expect that fight to happen soon maybe the turn of the year a Irish title fight.
Carl Frampton v a. Stephen Russell, or b. Paul McElhinney for the vacant (never won) Celtic super bantam weight title
