    will this be on again? I mean a repeat as I missed it because I was out.

    I understand Eamonn Magee gave Rogie some interesting motivational advice after round three - did anyone hear it?

    I'm not sure if they'd move it. The York Hall is absolutely the perfect size and layout for this type of event.

    I didn't but there were a couple of mean looking guys (like Magee but much bigger) who kept yelling "C'MON MARDIN" in deep, booming and very strong Belfast accents.

    When I saw Magee down as his trainer I assumed it would be Brian Magee's dad so was surprised to see Eamonn was a trainer now. Wouldn't have thought he would have the patience for it.

    In checking out the name of Brian Magee's dad I just found his Boxrec profile http://www.boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=Human:14880 and what must be the harshest start to a biography ever:

    Known for his somewhat glass chin, as shown against

    and

    . Magee represented Ireland as a middleweight at the 1996 Olympic games.

    That's the whole biog :shock: .
