Irish Boxing

Im a bit confused by this article.

i thought the school boys were between under 12's and under 15's but it says frampton won gold in rome 2003 when he was 16 so he would've been a junior by then right ?

or am i getting confussed by something ?

 

Didnt get around to reading it, can you give me the gist of what he said ?

i was under the impression peters did good by dunne

 

On second thoughts, read the book! Well worth it!

 

I think this has changed quite a few times over the years to be honest. Once upon a time it was simply boys, then youths, then juniors followed by senior (intermediate being just a lower grade of senior - nothing to do with age). Then the word "cadets" came into the frame which confused me.

The world youths became the world cadets and then the world juniors - or something to that extent. But you are right in terms of the schoolboy age. That always seemed to be the same, so I'd say frampton won gold in the youths/juniors/cadets ...whatever the title of that age group was at the time

 

Also, Willie O' Reilly was 3 if not 4 years younger than frampton/joyce/boyle - so how could he have won the same event 12 months later?

 

murphy is very good... county down all the way:good

 

as far as I am concerned the jury is out on all of them until they fight someone I recognise.

Theres a new guy turning over down there from Mayo now as well. Middleweight Stephen Kelly.

 

Any idea about his amateur legacy?

 

Can you get his next fight on line [ legal stream:deal]
