Irish Boxing

Not especially hes a good solid elite boxer,dont think he ever beat the likes of sheehan,gardener etc but always gave them a tough nights work,
He would be national level at best id say,

 

RIP FightinIrish84, brother of Derry boxer Tyrone McCullagh. Didn't post here often but sad to hear he's passed on.

 

what happened to him?

 

You never know though, he's training at Celtic Warrior and Packie Collins has proven himself to be an excellent coach. Could be another Keeler

 

Spike O'Sullivan just announced that he is fighting Dominican LMW Melvin Betancourt [29(23)-1(1)] in Boston for the NABA title on May 23rd as part of the undercard for Dirrell-DeGale.

Betanco has a padded record, has never fought outside the Dominican Republic, and is moving up in weight so O'Sullivan should knock him out. Fight will apparently be shown on Sky here and NBC over in the States, good publicity for Spike.

 

How old is Kennedy?

 

30/31

 

looking 4ward 2 tat:good

 

looks like lee and bjs is off for the moment because of andys shoulder injury ... that could mean bjs and eubank now fiting each other for the interim title:good

 

No Frampton-Quigg and now no Andy-BJS! ??? :|

Real bummer about Carl-Scott, since it really does appear to have been scuppered by petty personal 'politics' alone. Huge fight, huge purse, a fight we all wanted to see. There werent a million reasons for it to go ahead....there were 1,500,000 reasons. :-(
(Even worse it could be scuppered for good if Kiko beats Quigg.)

Wonder what Carls alternative is for this summer.
Nothing half as good as a Quigg fight I'll bet.

 

32 maybe 33 even he def 4 years older than me.. sound chap hope it goes well for him

 

I'm only going by the elite national entries list which has his year of birth as 1984. Could easily be a mistake

ryan burnett is the 2nd best Uk prospect after Luke Campbell

 

Burnett isnt the best prospect in Ireland :verysad, that would be Sutcliffe closely followed by Quigley and McCarthy. Ryan is best staying over in the London where there is less talent.:deal
