    Has anyone heard if Egan plans to go pro?? I know Sutherland says he has fought for the last time at amateur, but I heard Jimmy Magee sayin something about Kenny maybe trying again in London 2012. Surely he'll go pro on the back of that silver, Id love to see that, and I'm sure plenty of people would pay to see a nice boxing style like Kenny's.

    Kenny has said he'd turn pro if he won a medal, will he now go back on that who knows but that's what he said.

    The Irish boxers looked good at the Olympics, some bad judging cost them gold.

    each of the irish boxers only lost to the eventual gold medal winner in their respective weights..
