Irish Boxing

He needs to make up his mind about when hes going to make up his mind!

 

That doesnt sound very good i wonder if he does come back will he be 100% commited if he's still having doubts almost 6 months on

 

agree dat pajo woz very sloppy last nite, took way 2 many punches and let convey inside his jab far 2 much but he didnt look like he woz in der at all, at the same time stopped him and came out in the 7th a different fighter and remember ive seen posts dat say matthews is a bigger puncher but he cudnt knock convey out!!!!
still reckon he beat lindsay, think every1's allowed an off nite and pajo had a very off nite!!!!!!!!!

 

Yeah I will give him a pass on this one

:yep bad night for Pajo, but when the chips are down against Lindsay, it will be a different Pajo, which will result in a win for him.:deal

 

Yeah thats my main concern. That he comes back not 100% committed or not 100% sure he's made the right decision. He really should know by now. Its just about to tick around to 5 months since the last fight. He's had his holiday. He's had his family xmas. Its now well into the new year and he still doesn't seem to know.

I'm all for not rushing major decisions but the amount of hesitation and uncertainty in this case is unnerving. To be honest, whether its go on at SBW, go on at FW or retire, I think he really probably should know one way or another now.

If I was to wildly speculate (which I will :deal) I'd say he can't make SBW properly anymore. In his heart of hearts he knows he won't mix it at a decent level at FW. That leaves him the choice of jacking it in or going on at FW knowing that a career ending defeat is likely to come sooner rather than later.

 

The first of steve's reports are up on irish-boxing.com now. More to follow in the coming week.

 

Paddy would definately pull a performance out would be a good scrap!

 

Look forward to them Cormac!

 

Paddy admitted he wasnt at his best but he still took Coveney out... something a few lads couldnt do and Coveney looked decent-he is no mug..

Healy Fitz scrap was great. Fitz picked some lovely shots but Healy -whose no one support was roggie- kept coming and was upset with the result

 

ya agree wit u dere alrite beginning to remind me of Ricky Hatton people questioning him if he can make light welter and knowing he wont be very effective at welter!

 

Peters wouldnt even be drawn on it at the press conference! he said when he knows what bernard wants to do so will everyone...he did say he was planning an Irish prizefighter not at middleweight though

 

Look I'm the same as everyone else and I'll give Hyland a pass on that one. However, lets not fool ourselves that Coveney is any kind of decent standard. He's only back in the game 6 months after a 3 year lay off. He career is firmly embedded in the 'opponent' category.

Hylands next fight needs to be against someone of better quality and he needs to up the ante himself. Arthur or Appleby should be a makeable fight for him. He may need to fight away from home but i doubt he'd have a problem with that if it progresses his career

 

Ah what else was he going to say, though, to be fair. He was hardly going to say 'Bernard (my main fighter and prized asset) hasn't a clue what he wants to do or even if he wants to continue'.

Believe me if Peters had something to announce he'd have gone ahead and done it
