should do how old is your young lad, i have a bad feeling its gonna be a disappointing night for everyone, i keep hearing off everyone how bad they thought dunne looked at the nationals on friday night on RTE, cant be good
I'm 100% in the corner for gomez-burns and I'm also going to be at the Moore-picca fight and poss Rhodes-small
Going to local "1st team" show at Wolverhampton Civic Hall on friday (British masters title welterweight scrap headlining). Going to the "Battle Of Brum" Macklin Vs Elcock Aston Villa Centre march 14th. Probably the Hayemaker Rhodes Vs Small/Magee Vs Dodson Liverpool bill March 28th.
ticketmaster.ie from 60 euros up..and 7 euros booking charge be good to meet any other esb'er's there... my lad is nearly 14... there's a chance...a slim chance that dunne might do this...if..and it is an IF...he can build up a points lead for say 7-8 rounds and then coast home... he is a very talented boxer...gets his range right every time, he's very accurate..andgot very fast hands...but...there's the question mark over his chin...i am not convinced that because kiko sparked him it means he's chinny, but there's certainly a question mark there, and a big one...also, dunne runs out of steam when he gets to 7-8-9 round marks...so i am hoping by then he has fought well from range and built up a points lead... i have said before i dont think he's world class, but just have a feeling he may have a small chance here....i'll be cheering the lad on anyway... he could be one of wba's world champions at the weight. {did i ever think i would see the day when wba would have 2 world champs at a weight}
Good possibilty that I will be in Wigan a week on friday to see the Jamie Moore fight, a lad deep down on the undercard that I want to see (Karl Place - Baz Carey). I am definately in Liverpool on 28/3 to support the legend that is Ryan Rhodes.
Munroe vs Martinez and Moore vs whatsisname Might get to Rhodes vs Small too...... might watch that one on TV, then I can keep replaying Small getting knocked out as many times as I want, rather than trying to remember it after about 8 pints.
