    ah I'm not a city lad anyway, if the place is **** at least I won't get homesick ;)


    I'll see how it goes, ya there probably is nicer places in England. But those places aren't nearly as cheap to live in and don't have uni's which allowed me to doss for all of my leaving cert and still get enough points to get in to them comfortably :D


    Once you've got good friends you can live happily anywhere.

    I believe if O Neil was in bejing he would have beaten De Gale,Sutherland looked one paced and disinterested O Neil whilst not as strong as Sutherland has much more dimensions and amateur boxing ability.I wonder though would he have beaten Blanco in the quaters?
    Good to have a guy like him to step in for the national team though.

    Got my ticket for Cork on Saturday,looking forward to it.
    Should be some good hard hitting bouts especially Perez against the Brazilian.O Sullivan at home will be interesting too he will want to impress with a big KO.
    The super bantam cuban is meant to be a bit special.
    Anyone else popping down ?

    I would love to be going, but its a bit of a drive from Dundalk. OSullivan seems to be impressing a lot of folk, but I think the main attractions on Saturday will be the Cubans.Enjoy yourself Puca, maybe you can post the results on here afterwards.:deal

    Ya I'll be there, and I've managed to rope a few non boxing fan friends into going aswell. I'm very interested in the 3 Cubans and of course O'Sullivan and Power have been getting rave reviews recently so I'll be happy to get a look at them too.
