any of the irish posters catch this last night? great show.
Unreal that Joe Ward is only 18! dispatched Kenny Egan easily enough. Hopefully he's in no immediate rush to turn pro, a real medal prospect.
Nolan-Joyce was a cracker as well, close fight.

This was on RTE, at primetime on a Friday night, and it seems most of the country was watching it. What a buzz!

I was there, good night's action. Some real talent on the Irish scene.

Michael Conlan, Ross Hickey, John Joe Nevin, Adam Nolan, Con Sheehan and of course Joe Ward. Good times ahead.
