    No.

    Because he didn't fight for a world title.

    It wasn't even for an alphabet.

    Yes he is... Shouldn't have been nowhere near that level at all... A club fighter at best.

    You're only trying to rise us Irish lads. Casey is nowhere near world class but far worse fighters have fought for world titles. Give it a rest bud.

    Wasn't Casey's fight for the regular title?

    No, interim WBA same as that lad fought for. It was awarded to Rigo for the Cordoba fight.

    Ah, didn't realise that :roll:

    But that leads me on to another question then... Seeing as Bernard Dunne never won the real World title either, when was the last time before McCloskey that an Irish born man actually fought for a geniune, no Interim or WBA Regular bollocks, World title?
