Note:
Neil Sinclair's opponent, Janos Petrovics, arrive late (but within the time line) and weighed in at 153 Ilbs (3 Ilbs lighter than Neil)
Joe Rea's opponent, Phillip Townley, was 2 Ilbs over the agreed weight at 163 Ilbs in his first attempt, at his second attempt he came in right on the limit at 161 Ilb.

It's on tomorrow.

The broadcast probably starts at 10, and then fight shortly after.

I got fed-up waiting and toddled on home before Janos appeared. Feel free to amend any incorrect weights' as I scribbled them down roughly in my notepad in between shots.

I think that will be a good scrap but O'Hara will probably have the better skills to win. O'Hara was a top amateur but has never sparked in the pro game.
You're right. Mickey is a wee fella indeed!

I think O'Hara will out box Coveney, he has only been Beaten by Decent Fighter's, Mickey has had do it the hard way..
Never in a Dull fight... Should be a good one

Me too! I called Hugh Russell when I got home to find out the latest on Petrovics as I was concerned that Sinky might not get a fight, so I was relieved to hear that it all worked out and we have a brilliant card to look forward to. Look out for Jamie Conlan, he has a brilliant amateur pedigree and is one for the future.

I hope so. I don't care about the McCloskey fight. Boxrec says Rogan-Sexton is on Sky:

Nice one

I am looking forward to Conlan's fight, his opponent is a tough little guy. Wilton was outworking him in the first fight and seemed to be strolling to victory until Anwar floored him with a good shot.

Rogan looks in decent shape. I still think Sexton will win - he was giving him a lesson for the most part last time (people have forgotton this and focused too much on the end).

No, i think most just realise that a championship fight is sheduled for a full 12 rounds rather than merely 6 or 7.

I think whoever's trained harder (but peaked at the right point, obviously) will win. It looks like Rogan, but we'll see when the stamina comes into play.

Yes, but would Rogan have gambled liked that without that cut? A round before Sexton looked close to stopping Rogan.
