Wárren signs two Paddies and sticks them on Burns-Martin

[slapbangwhallop]

FWP have signed to unbeaten Irish fighters, Stephen Ormond and Spike O'Sullivan, and stuck them on the undercard of the Burns bill in September.

Neither fighter has really reached their potential and regular fights should help them along.

Good news (AFAIAC)

are any of them good? how old is o'sullivan? were they good amatuers

Spike is kicking on now, seemed to be caught in a rut in Cork and not really reaching his full potential. He is a bit of a (Roy Keane type) wild man and comes to finish the show early.

Ormond is more of a classy boxer and has travelled to further his career but has hit hurdles in terms of promotion etc. He really needs momentum - which is what he will get with FWP. Pity neither are going to be on the Mag-7 bill because there will be a lot of Irish at that show.

Is Ormond the guy who was over here with the Lynches but couldnt go pro because of eye issues?

actually I think he was with the Lynchs (Birmingham?) at the begining of his career.
