Gold medals for Moylette and Ward at the European Championships for Ireland. :clap:

Ah lovely. :clap:

The IABA and all present and past board members are a credit to this country.

Matthew Macklin fights for a world title tomorrow night.

Brilliant stuff from the lads, the boxing is going to be the hottest ticket in London.

Matthew Macklin entering the ring now for those interested

Is this on TV?

Found it, nevermind. Sky Sports 2

Rather disrespectful attempt at an Irish anthem there.

Mon to fuck Macklin.

Best of luck to Matthew Macklin. :clap:

First round to Macklin.

Excellent start by Macklin. I give him round 1.

Super fight this. I hope Macklin’s fitness is good. He is doing a lot of work

Decent scrap this…mon Macklin ta fuck

Very entertaining stuff. I have Macklin 2 rounds to 1 up with the 4th tied.

Can’t see this, but hopefully Maclins move to the more advanced and modern training at Gallaghers will help. If you said he’d go toe to toe with Sturm a year or two ago i’d say he’d be TKO’d/KO by Rd. 7-8 as his conditioning wasn’t always the best.

Keep it coming lads please, would love to see him win it.

My scorecard is Macklin 49-47 after 5 rounds.

Here’s a link Kev:

Hopefully Macklin can keep this pace going for twelve rounds.

What kind of judge are you Bandage ? Do you give rounds to the busier lad or the lad who’s landing the cleaner punches
