Bernard dunne
Re: Bernard dunne
Bernard looked very impressive and I think he is now ready to step up. Maloney has said that munroe will not fight dunne. I was listening to an old interview that rte did with peters when the opponent was supposed to be jiminez. Peters said that the plan was to go straight for the world title. Dunne said after his fight that he still wanted the ebu belt back? What do you guys think?Should dunne go to world level or should he wait until munroe cant but fight him?

but if they can get a top tenner over then why not.
obviously the munroe fight would be worth it to get him ranked again.
kiko martinez rematch anyone.
Re: Bernard dunne
There is a lot of options open to him...
Hunter - in what would be a good marketable scrap and would be a good scalp of a former EBU champ and world title challenger and would be an entertaining eye catching fight. They'd mix well style wise.
Martinez II - Avenge his only loss. Would garner interest with Irish fans due to the nature of the first fight. I still think Dunne wins a lopsided decision if he keeps at range and boxes intelligently.
Munroe - Get back his EBU title and go back into ranking contention for a world title. Probably a fight he'd avoid if Munroe didn't have the title. Plus Maloney is demanding the fight happen in the UK which Brian Peters seems to be against.
Molitor - The only world champ he'd stand a good chance against at super bantam. I'm sure it would be a lucrative fight for Molitor who isn't a widely recognised household name. A good gate and Europe wide coverage as well as Setanta probably picking it up. Easily promotable over here, along with the fact Dunne beat Molitor in the amateurs. A lot would favour Molitor but I reckon Dunne takes a good share of the rounds and would be in with a shout.
