39-year-old Stephen Reynolds who is a 5 time Irish senior champion at Heavyweight and Super Heavyweight is turning pro next month in Belfast. Anyone remember him?

I always thought there was some ruling against when a fighter is allowed to turn pro. I thought you couldn't turn pro at 31 (although you could embark on a comeback in your 40's).

Obviously not...

I don't know about the UK but Dewey Bozella made his debut at 52.

Yep, I remember him and his brother well. Good fighter, It will be interesting to see how he goes on.

Yeah, his brother Alan won 7 straight Irish senior titles and his Stephen's trainer now.

Anthony Cacace vs Mickey Coveney, The size difference Mickey Coveney was the one over weight............

[Londonirish]

Any results?

[slapbangwhallop]

Any results?

Everyone on the left side of the list won, by KO, except Hillerby and McMahon who won on points. Some cracking fights on the bill.
