Good performance by the Dungiven man. Hes all action and has been fighting a good standard of opponent in Ireland over the last while. The thing I had to laugh at when i watched the fight again this morning is how the commentators started by saying that Lynes looked sharper and was landing the crisper shots, then suddenly when McCloskey grew into the fight and started to boss it the commentators are saying that Lynes has never really got going ... :think I agree with the previous poster that Lynes looked bad because McCloskey made him look bad
A lad I booked a flight to Aus for, flew back especially to watch this fight as he's a mate of McCloskey's. Glad it was worth the trip for him!
yeah, according to both Smith McChicken sandwich Paul didnt manage to land a punch until mid way through the third round. idiots
Yeh, my old man wasn't impressed at that either. I cant get my head around it to be honest, its either straight up bias or else they are doing their best to protect their man
We have been ordered to fight a title eliminator against Junior Witter so that is what we are going to do. Of course if McCloskey keeps winning and becomes a world contender when we win the WBC belt then all things are possible.
hopefully they can get it on some time in the future...mcclosskey might become a major force...a title defence at home should b his next step though :good
