Jamie is bang on - Ashley Sexton was terrible - he is a hype job. I would back Conlan and Wilton to beat him.

 

heard brendan fitz is fighting ciaran healy on hylands show in an 8 rounder will be good yardstick to see how he compares to spike, fitz, and mcdonagh. healy alot better than people give him credit for should be decent scrap timsy is on the card only doing a four rounder.

 

that is a good fight and a good test for Fitz.

 

I am glad to hear Healy is out again, when is that Hyland show?

 

Was anyone at the Haughian presser today?

 

Classy, Luke.

 

Conlan would have a great chance with Sexton. The lads living off one, admittedly , spectacular KO. Johnny Nelson trying to big him up too his last fight. " hes got dynamite in his hands, a 50% knockout ratio " fighting at the level he has thats nothing special

 

This is a real step up for Fitzpatrick, I assume John Breen is confident the fact he's putting him in with Healy but I wouldn't be surprised if Healy won this

 

Jamie Kavangh will be back in the ring on the 3rd June in Fantasy Springs Resort Casino California, The card will be televised in the States on TeleFutura a spanish language station

 

That will be seven fights in just over a year. Goldenboy are bringing him along nicely. Compare that to Frankie Gavin, who has had only nine fights since turning pro two and a half years ago.

 

Good stuff hopefully Jamies manager will find an excuse to get him some interviews with the local latin media and he can impress them with his spanish!

He should get a spanish nick name in my opinion - imagine an Irish lad fighting in America with both the Irish & Latino crowd cheering for him:good

 

yeah, what the **** is that about?

 

that's a great shout, any US based boxer that can converse in english and spanish has the ability to get far greater exposure than a mono lingual fighter, this is particularly relevant for a fighter based in california.

the latinos appreciate a guy who makes the effort too, remember salita prepared a speech in spanish the 2nd time he fought in puerto rico and got a great cheer at the presser and i think john duddy even had a cupla focail of spanish when he was fighting chavez
