Ha ha! Not the comedian from the States. But the Galway lad that's close to Sweeney. ;)

After the weigh in, in which neither looked in great condition, I've swung back in favour of Sweeney to outpoint him

What's his rep around Belfast?
He's a Catholic isn't he?
Definitely a marmite figure. I've heard plenty about him, some not so savoury. However, I was a fan. The belly, the do, the post knockout war-dance = entertainment in my book.
Hes a world champion super middle trapped inside a fat cruisers body.
Im gonna stick the neck out and say that he wins by middle round Ko. Big shout.
In his early pro career i always thought Darren was carrying to much weight and around super middleweight would have suited him much better,and he was a very heavy hitter maybe he needed a trainer/manager who could control him and yes he should have went to USA with Frazier

I expect Sweeney to win this comfortably, Corbett looked well past his best in Prizefighter 2 years ago now, not quite sure why he is making this comeback.
hope he is in shape
