    Yeah well you should i have no problem Gavin fighting for the title but not a gimme fight and Byrne definetly should be the one in with him,
    Same with Sweeny versus Waldron i believe sweeny was told Waldrons next fight was to be against Sweeny thats the only reason he stepped aside and let Waldron fight Power for the title,
    Just last week Spike refused a challenge from Fitzy in Cork
    Christle should say to these so called champions put up or move aside.
    Who cares about the zeros on the record lets make the Irish title a title worth fighting for.Its the only way for smaller type boxing to survive in this country.

    Happy to see an irishman ranked so highly in the rankings but the WBC are a ****ing disgrace the way they rank mexicans so highly even after a couple of losses.
    Paul should defo go for the eliminator instead of that bloody lauri rematch also.

    Waldron has no prob of steppin between ropes with sweeney, peters said after waldron power fight that he was sendin waldron sweeney down seperate routes, which waldron only heard days after the fight, if the fight cums about let it happen in mayo in front of both lads home supporters, why would you bring mayo lads to dublin to fight, they'd draw bigger crowd in mayo in my opinion, dont know why people are on about this if i not mistaken sweeney never came in at championship weight for lightheavy weight, but im sure this fight aint far off

    U see i have a different line of thinking

    It would be a privledge for Gavin to fight for an irish title

    I think gavin would rather be tested in a fight for the irish title rather than one just being handed too him

    Screw Gavin if he wants the honour of calling himself the champion of this country then he better damn well earn it like all the rest of our lads have to.

    With Gavin having more Irish blood than Tony Cascarino. I think he is entitled to fight for the title if he wants to and against a top fighter if they can sort it out. I am surprised that IABA didnt try and get him to fight for Ireland as a amatur during that time. With the team we had he would of been a great addition to it. Anyhow I am glad to see that he wants to fight for the title and hopefully if he fights and wins it he defends it at least once before he moves on to bigger things.
