Irish Boxing

He's a disgrace, you should have posted up the threatening mail as your status

 

I have heard other nations complain about bias in the amateur section, it is definitely vindicated. Why give them your money, cancel the ****.

 

I was shouting ring side- couldn't help it-but i wasn't that bad- but David Kelly, went mad in the press conference, but David is close to Paul and like everyone upset, he is a true gent and a great writer. Gerry had a bit of a go and defended David. I was shocked in the after presser that all the wanted to talk about was Bradley- bar one or two English reporters (the bloke with the long hair ah sure what was his name?he asked some very good cut based questions) they were all saying congrats whats next- seemed they didnt want to upset golden boy too..

Jonny, you could clearly hear in the post-presser all of the Bradley questions were asked by the English journos. After the way that fight finished, it was lame. As I said a few days ago, very well done to all the Irish journo's at that presser, at least they have the balls to call Goldenboy out on his bull****.

 

I know. It was totally unnecessary. The irony is Herbert had a go at the Irish journalists, whilst he cheerleaded Goldenboy and Khan - he has proved that when it comes to the big promoters Boxing News bend their knee and bow their heads like subservient little lambs.:deal

 

What does the dude look like?

I met two Nordie brethren on Press Row - one was about 30, black hair, 5'11 and not a million miles dissimilar to Eamonn O'Kane the other was an entirely different looking chap - high pitched voice, maybe 25-35, light coloured hair and the most baby face I've ever seen on a man past puberty.

Neither of the two guys I described are in this picture, nor is Herbert, so I am assuming Kelly isnt either but lets see.

I haven't read it yet. But we were well within our rights to question what was going on and still are.
Whole thing was a joke. The English questions were indeed all ignoring McCloskey and aimed at Bradley and letting Khan spout bull****.

All the while McCloskey sat beside him. I know I tried to be get at Khan when asking him a question and will never apologise for it.

Can anyone essentially say what the editorial said about Irish hacks? I'm ****ed if I'm paying to see it. David Kelly was dead on to get so angry, what went on was a disgrace, start to finish - especially to finish.

 

Yeah why wouldn't local press shout on their man? Even if the rule book says journalists must be objective, a Derry man working for a Derry paper can shout as loud as he likes.

It's essentially the same thing as editorial's like BN's, though I haven't seen this issue. Only BN is far more snide and their agenda less shouty - it's still just as obvious to anyone with two eyes.

 

Khan's a 'deluded dickhead jumping around like he just beaten Floyd Mayweather...' That's the take from Irish Paddy Cronan, great listen if you know where to find it

 

he has a point!

 

Ardy, if you are dissapointed why not let them know your views on the issue -

Maybe some of the House *****s could let them know their thoughts as well.
