    I haven't even seen the Cordoba fight yet, but if it was that epic, I predict Dunne gets a call from HBO and Showtime both. Especially HBO. They know a guy that can make those kind of fireworks can bring huge ratings, even if he isn't always the winner or necessarily the best.

    This is first time i have seen Dunne fight like this, he had no option really with the way Cordoba kept comming forward applying relentless pressure, but he handled it well especially after the 5th when Cordoba actually upped the pace looking for the Ko.Great fight, a rematch would be nice in a year or two

    maybe showtime will but not hbo. they wont be willing to broadcast from ireland and showtime probably would. i dont see dunne leaving ireland anytime soon the o2 arena in dublin is his fortrese and its where he will make the most money the irish fans will pay top dollar to see him fight against anybody. unless hbo are willing to pay the big bucks and deliver the big names {which they hav no reason to do} then dunne wont leave ireland

    I hope so, it would be great to see him fight in MSG.
