    Danny O'connor got another win to improve to 2-0. There are pics at warriors boxing (some good shots). As for Duddy situation, I think his team is wasting away his prime years. The kid is willing and able to fight quality opponents but his team just is afraid to throw him in with a live body. At this point in his career i thinks its time to sink or swim. The belief that irish ropes can just wait and let a title shot come to them is absurd and actually insulting. The tv networks are certainly not buying it.

    I'm sickened - I'm going to the finals on saturday and was hoping we would have at least 1 Paddy in the final to cheer on.

    At least I'll get a look at Lomachenko
