    Oisin seemed a sound lad when I met him but whoever the twat is that posted this on his fb needs a beating

    "Hope Khan gives you another shot, but im not to sure he will. You have his number and he knows it, only for the accident in your last fight with him you would have had him that night. He is a bottler and selects fights very carefully,he wouldn't have a balls to get back in the ring with you ***an he likes fighting nobodys. Hope you get a big fight champ you deserve it"

    Dont be stayin near the airport.

    Stay in town - I generally recommend the Novotel on Princess Street. Nice hotel, handy for all Manchester locations and a short walk to the MEN.

    Any other bits of info ye need just give me a shout.

    The was an "Irish section" in the MEN the night Magee fought Hatton - raucous and rambunctious if how I would have described them

    Dub to Manchester 15 April 20:35, Manchester to Dub 17 April 14:00. €109, not bad I suppose. Anyone recommend a boozer that the McCloskey fans will be heading to on the Friday night?

    The boxing fan in me is excited but the Hyland fan in me says this is madness. To get into the ring with Acosta after the hiding Casey gave him is bizarre. Funny, I criticised him in the past for fighting shite opponents, now the pendulum has swung too far in the opposite direction for my liking!

    I had half a piece done on this yesterday but when I contacted Acosta he said it wasnt done and Paulie never replied.

    The Casey vs Rigondeaux fb page has announced it:huh as has Dolphil.
    From one extreme to another as far as matching Paulie goes.

    Aye, but his site doesnt seem to be selling them at the minute. Someone needs to get the finger out.

    Anyone ever been to M.E.N before? Was going to buy the £75 tickets but not much point paying for travel and a hotel and then only seeing two tiny dots in the ring.

    What way do the ticket sales work- does Paul definately keep the money he makes from ticket sales, because the Derry Post has been advertising the fight and telling people to get them from ticketmaster and not from Paul.
