I'll second that being from Belfast, I'll get to see it as well on RTE 2

Good Night of Boxing

Dunne sold out so quickly or I would have went and I guess a drive home to watch Hopkins Eastman.

Yeh will be a good show, tickets sold within 24 hours of being sold.
My cousin is fighting on the bill making his second pro fight. His name Paul Hyland he has two other brothers Eddie and Pajo all are going to be Champions.

Weren't they all amateurs who turned Pro at more or less the same time? I am sure i read a report on them maybe in Boxing News a while back.

I like Jim Betts - he fought well against Booth and I saw him fight Daniel Ring (I think thats correct) too. He's brave and capable, but at featherweight with a supposedly hot property like Dunne - he shouldn't last.

But go on BETTS - Scunny boy I think?

Was a sparring partner for Hamed when he was preparing for Calvo.

Jim Betts has been fighting at Lightweight recently David and lasting the course there, I wish Betts would think about getting the weight down - he would be competitive at Bantam.

On what I've seen 135 is way above where he should be, he couldn't quite live with Boothie at 118 but gave a great account of himself and landed some good shots too.

World Champions, European Champions, Irish Champions or County Champions?

Dunne will KO Betts quite easily.
