Irish Boxing

Jamie Conlan has a WBO world title final eliminator confirmed, and they're aiming for it to take place in August. If Inoue vacates between now and then it could become a vacant title fight

 

Damn - I was just about to ditch Sky after xmas.....!!!!

Strange, that Sky has picked up this fight.

 

Also thought Hearn had sole rights with what was shown on Sky

 

Just fights that take place in the UK as far as I know. Sky have started showing a few big cards from the USA recently

 

Is Conrad Cummings on the card? If so he really needs to shine this time. Shane Mc and Carl etc has been saying how he is this great prospect and he shines in sparring etc - but its in the ring that counts and so far for me, Conrad has failed to really shine in fights - where it counts.

 

Nothing confirmed yet, but would be hopeful he's on the bill

 

I hope he is on the bill. But if he is , and either way in his next fight in any case, he needs to show us something. Otherwise people who have kept the faith with him up until now will just give up on him. Shane and Carl can't keep making excuses for him. He has to deliver.

 

Barry Mcguigan, etc have been conning the public with their overhyping of Cummings. The Same way the Liverpool boxing scene did with Joey Selkirk. He's showed nothing in the ring to suggest he will get past domestic level if he even gets to that. I'm surprised at Barry Mcguigan cause usually he knows his stuff and you can trust his word on his opinions of fighters.

 

I agree about Cummings.be surprised if he gets a British title.

What do you make of Cummings, Fra?

 

Don't really rate him.... he's very one pace.... his strength might help him... but he's not powerful enough to be world class... but here he's young so could improve
