    McCloskey defends the European title for the second time on the 2nd of October vs Barry Morrison in Letterkenny.

    This should be a decent fight...hopefully McCloskey gets a big fight soon though.,

    A massive step down, he could have gone for Daws or Barnes both would have been better fights

    Thats what I thought myself to be honest, a good fighter from anywhere around Europe. But I suppose it's only his second defense and he was supposed to fight Morrison a while ago but Morrison pulled out and Harrison came in.

    i think he'll be too slick for morrison and could stop him in later rounds

    good fight, if morrison is on good form this could be close, with maybe a contraversial decision to mcloskey, otherwise pm wins unanimas.

    The Andy Murray fight should be good.

    Morrison will probably put up a decent fight, Scotsmen are generally pretty tough, Im sure it'll be much tougher than the fight with Dean Harrison was. Has McCloskey got out of that ridiculous rematch with Lauri?

    McCloskey needs to step up after this, I understand it's better to fight Morrison than to wait around for the Lauri rematch but he's no spring chicken so he needs to get a move on.
