john joe carrigan + world under 19s

Post by margaret thatcher »

listed as 27-0 am on boxrec, not sure how complete that is

but he's won euros twice in a row and is now in the world under 19 finals. so far won all his fights by ud or stoppage

anyone know anything about him?

there was also a 39-0 aussie who stopped his first two opponents (including a brit) before being beaten for first time ever in the lightweight semifinals by a tough arse japanese boxer. it was a good fight

John Joe has had nearer 100 bouts. Boxrec only covers the top championships and internationals. He's from Carlisle and an excellent prospect. Adam Maca from Brighton boxes for Albania was robbed blind in his quarter final, as bad as the Roy Jones Seoul bout! Leo had his toughest bout against India on Tuesday. He's got the Korean next. They're a very good crop of kids.

stuff in this secttion barely gets replies, come on mod brahs. it's british topic too discussing the brit boxers. plenty of talk of olympic boxing already in the british and irish section, which doesnt specify pro boxing either

How does Leo Atang match up with the Irish heavyweight Adam Olaniyan? He won the IBA world youth championships in Montenegro not so long ago.

ya interested in that as well. a poster who knows leo says he's sparred with olaniyan before and that each side was trying to arrange an exhbition bout. it was a bit of a shame leo didnt get to participate in the iba worlds, it had a much deeper field
