    Why? Sure Dolphil have no TV. At this stage Byrne needs a promoter with TV, he has a kid to support.

    Just a question, he could have had a high-profile fight at Citywest in two weeks - in front of his own who do come out for him.

    Instead he was to feature down the bill in Wigan on the same night while his old coach and club have their coming out party.

    Fair enough on the TV though, and he didn't like the terms. Best of luck to him, guess we won't be seeing him until May now. Or will we even?

    I've had some bad barnets in my day but that pic of Lee that ImElvis has up is ****ing shocking. He looks like he's related to those Jedward ****ers

    had my first night of training for the white collar tonight. Now have a new found respect for all boxers. Never realised how tough it is to just pump your jab for 3 minutes. Feels like my shoulders gonna fall off

You're gonna be slick as a mother****er! Now go out into your backyard and start chasing chickens around the place or something ;) Best of luck with it. Keep us up to speed on how its going

    this is looking a bit grim for TV viewing which is all I'm likely to get to see at this rate.

    Yeah, I heard TV was done - only about nine times now........

    "Newstalk Sport is delighted to announce that it has secured live broadcast rights for the forthcoming WBA World Title Fight in Citywest, Saturday 19th of March.
    Limerick man Willie “Big Bang” Casey is bidding for the WBA Super Bantamweight title that Bernard Dunne won in such spectacular fashion two years ago.
    Big Bang takes on two-time Olympic gold medallist and Cuban defector, Guillermo ‘El Chacal’ Rigondeaux.
    Casey, a qualified welder, will be in the fight of his life against one of the greatest amateurs in Olympic history. Newstalk listeners will be there for every punch as our award winning sports team brings you full live commentary. Coverage starts at 10pm.
    “We’re delighted to have secured rights to bring this fight to the Irish public. Given all the doubts about the television coverage we felt that it was important someone stepped in to make sure fight fans had live coverage guaranteed. When Bernard Dunne won the title it was one of the most amazing nights in Irish boxing history. Willie Big Bang Casey is part of a long tradition of Irish fighters taking on the World’s best. We can’t wait for it”, said Ger Gilroy, Newstalk Sports Editor."
