Massive credit to Hyde if he can pull it off, I've great respect for Gary and what he's trying to achieve.
Paddy, I can't PM you back 'cos I don't have enough posts! What a disaster. If you want to send me your email via PM, then I can email you back instead.
Fair play to Hyde - he will get his money's worth out of these Cubans down the road if they are as good as advertised.These guys as well as Irelands top young prospectsshould be fighting every 2 months at least
that's the job Podge, i don't know if i'll be able to get ten of my buddys to go but i'm gonna try my best.
excellent george kimball article in the irish times today about Duddy and Lee but mainly to do with Duddys split from Irish ropes, he reckons if duddy agrees to fight on the garden card on march 16th (wher lee will fight walid smichet) they could shake hands rip up the promo contract and go seperate ways.says duddy has pulled out of like 2 seperate decent pay days. also alludes that HBO wer ****ed off with Duddy over wrecking the hearns show. mcloughlin "HBO main events arent like buses, if you miss one another wont come along"

[Breaking News] SKELTON TAKES ON ROGAN http://www.frankwarren.tv/drill/News/Articles/2009/01/08/skelton-takes-on-rogan123.html I'm really annoyed this fight is not in Belfast,after the promises from Warren.And to add insult to injury its only for the Commonwealth title, and not the European.
Here is Irish Times article on Lee/Duddy mentioned in Pathman's earlier post. http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/sport/2009/0108/1230936761493.html
Bit annoyed myself it seems rte are under the impression its for the euro title as were everyone else that wanted this fight to happen http://www.rte.ie/sport/boxing/2009/0108/roganm.html If the fight had have been on in belfast i definately would have made the trip up. It just goes to show the difference between sportsnetwork and hayemaker.........
