Not sure if I fancie Macklin against Chavez. He's not Martinez.. he cant do to Chavez what Martinez did. Chavez is just a freak. Too big and too strong.
Lee should be a couple of levels above Fitz. Would be surprised if it lasts more than 6 or 7 rounds. Great to see Conlan involved in a Commonwealth title fight- he's had so many bouts called off. Wilton also going for British title in England as well, lets not forget.
Quigley is European champion for a second time with Myers taking silver http://www.iaba.ie/myres-edged-out-in-european-final/
Yeah, its great to see Lee on a show in Ireland again, Fitz will give it a good go, I enjoyed his last fight against O'Kane and I would have liked to have seen Fitz-O'Kane 2 but this will do. And it is great that both Wilton and Conlan are getting title shots, they have both bided their time and hopefully will both gets the wins and fight each other later on in 2013. Great to see shows announced early in 2013 i.e. both Katie Taylor and the Odyssey show.

for me Fitz-O'Kane is a great little fight Lee should handle fitzy rather easily no problem with this as a comeback fight I hope wilton and conlan go on a collision course!
Frampton v Martinez Lee v Fitzy Conlan against a good opponent. That a quality night of Irish boxing. I'm there.
Conlan-Wilton would be sweet, especially with titles on the line, but it looks like Conlan is campaigning at Super Fly and Wilton at Fly
