EMMET 'THE MAULER' McNALLY from the EFR fight team will take on the challenge of unbeaten Scottish fighter JOHN QUINN
Anyone who has seen Emmet in action will agree he is one of the most exciting fighters on the UK and Irish circuit and has ko power in both hands and dispatched top Czech fighter Jaroslav Poborsky in the second round last time out.
John comes from scottish top team the dinky ninja's with all wins coming inside the distance
Should be another great fight.

UFR Management

SBG's CLIVE STAUNTON makes a welcome return to the EFR when he takes on MARK PALMER from PCB
Mark has six pro wins to his credit and an accomplished grappler with great takedowns and is coming off two quick submission wins inside two minutes each time
Clive had a great match with Emmet McNally last time he appeared in the North that hang in the balance up to the end
Another exciting encounter to look forward to.

mark.leonard

Awesome, my money is on Clive 100%, I don't think Mark has fought someone with Clive's submission abilities yet, and Clive hits hard too!

WAR!

Dragan

Awesome! Best of luck to Clive!

cowzerp

I really like the circular cages, they are great for viewing and let the fight flow, congrats on getting it in davey, will miss the ring too though! best of luck with it..

The Centrepoint is on the Portadown Road, Lurgan - coming off the M1 take the exit for Lurgan (Junction 10) - take the first exit off the roundabout into Lurgan (Lough Road). Go into the town (past the railway crossing) and after the traffic lights at the top of William Street turn right immediately after the church which is also on your right - this takes you to a mini roundabout - take the 3rd exit (Edward St) and continue on past McDonalds - the Centrepoint is on the left heading out of the town.

Those coming from Dublin direction - take the signposts for Lurgan/Craigavon/The West at the Sprucefield Roundabout, then as above

Address for anyone hi-tech using their satnav - 24 Portadown Road, Lurgan

we'll see how wimpy it is when we are trying to find our way on Sunday!

UFR Management

"Yay McDonalds!"

All you need is a context - there's one at the Sprucefield Roundabout too where anyone coming from Dublin will head off towards Lurgan. Mr Leonard - you stick with Satnav and the rest of us will find our way to Lurgan via various McDonalds landmarks

Predictions people? Prize details are on the fighttalk forum

Lucy

Please note it is a female giving directions so they will be accurate...

Tim_Murphy

Hi Lucy,

Would it not be quicker to head up the A26 through Banbridge and into Lurgan that way?

UFR Management

Mr Murphy

It may well be quicker to go that way, think its all much of muchness though - if you go off at Sprucefield towards Lurgan its 15-20 mins max to Lurgan.

Directions from Google Map to go via Banbridge:

At Dublin Road Roundabout, take the 3rd exit onto A1/Newry Bypass
Continue to follow A1 5.0 km
At Armagh Road Roundabout, take the 2nd exit onto A27/Tandragee Rd
Continue to follow A27
Go through 2 roundabouts 16.9 km
Slight right at Terryhoogan Rd 1.3 km
Turn left at B3/Scarva Rd 2.7 km
Slight right at A51/Tandragee Rd
Continue to follow A51 0.7 km
At the roundabout, take the 1st exit onto A50/Mill St 0.2 km
Slight right at Castle Hill 0.4 km
Continue on Hunters Hill Rd 2.9 km
Continue straight onto B3/Plantation Rd
Continue to follow B3 6.3 km
At Gilford Road Roundabout, take the 1st exit onto A26/Flush Pl

Not sure where this brings you into Lurgan but look out for McDonalds and head out past it

You may LOL now, but I can see you Sunday in some open road with no raod signs and unfriendly locals walking around saying "Herooooooo?", you won't be long ringing me to ask my TomTom for advice then so you won't

I on the other hand will wait till you get there, and get the gps coordinates from you then just like antrim.

Its not my fault that I compensated for my rugged chin and dashing good looks by a lack of sense of direction! Forever more I will refer to my TomTom as Satnav to avoid any confusion with the Tomahawk
