Not sure on that one, Munroe is better than that i think Rocket. Dunne should win tonight mind you, but over the distance. In fact i agree with the guy who wrote this article: http://www.britishboxing.net/news_3329- ... eview.html

Knows his stuff that boy

He speaks sense on occasions!!

I have to say though, Dunnes problem is his chin..Munroe doesnt whack that hard and skillswise Dunne is unmatched in Europe...Dunne win with consumate ease!!

But lets get tonight done, last time we looked past an opponent Dunne got chin-checked!! :(

At the prices Dunne is definitely worth a lay

Would love to be there tonight - my mother's family are from not too far away in Mayo. Nice to see Brian Peters spreading pro boxing to the west of Ireland..

I look forward to hearing how John O'Donnell gets on as well - I have been awaiting his return - the lad has real talent.

He should have some good support in the hall as well - I believe he is from nearby Galway.

Great preview by the way Steve - keep em coming mate - the Irish scene is buzzing!

Unmatched in Europe might be pushing it... but I agree with your post.

Munroe is a skillful operator also... really intriguing fight that one. I have said before - Domestic fight I am most looking forward to seeing.

Dunne won every round in his comeback on way to a points victory.

Demolition Daley failed to make it out of the first with Mike Perez - hardly surprising given the huge disparity in experience.

RTE only showed a few seconds worth of highlights

so what - 7-3, 9-1, 10-0 - makes little difference - I personally would have given him a couple of rounds just for effort however if you strictly took it on a round by round basis as you should do then it would have been quite easy to give him all ten and I dont think he was bettered in any round
