Is there any more match up's Dave,
I have two lads coming up.
See you then.

Dave Joyce

I'm waiting till Sunday to match all the Juniors John and there are a good few seniors I haven't matched as well because if there is any difference in the weights quoted and actual weights then it will take ages to re-match everyone concerned. Txt me on their names/weights if you get a chance John

Khannie

Good luck Pat and Kelly!

Best of luck with the show Dave.

the weighs in are at 11 at our gym we are gona try and get the first fight on for one as it stands there are alot of fights 5euro to watch but theres only 50 or so seats so come early if you want all fighters please make sure that your coach has your medical form and book thanks see you all 2mrw

Dave Joyce

Wow, what a crazy day and what a lot of fights. Thanks to all the coaches, corner people, refs, judges, timekeepers, PJ (first aid), spectators and last but by no means least the fighters who made it all possible. We had 20 fights in total after a couple of people pulling out, one who had played a rugby match that morning and hurt his back, another who had the flu all week and some of the lads who were wrecked/too tired after fighting once. All credit to Karl "Cyborg" Hodgers who fought THREE times against different opponents. Here is, I think the results:

Pat Hickey B/stone W V Joe Byrne Carlow
Dennis Brosnan McEvoy's V Islan B/stone W
Kamel Hanuman V Gerard Murray Draw
Marcin Carlow V Gary Fay Mervue Draw
Kelly Creegan B/stone W V Joyce Fahy NUIG
Tom Durnin Mervue W V Lucas McEvoy's
Graham Ryan B/stone W V Liam Morgan Newry
Colin Fahy Hanuman W V Laurence Ward McEvoy's
Colin Harty Hanuman V Rolandas Louth Draw
Eric B/stone V Eanna McNamara NUIG W
David Kotwicki McEvoy's W V Jonathan Burns Waterford
Justin Boyle Carlow V Jacek Wieczorek McEvoy's Draw

The remainder of the bouts were either Juniors or Demo bouts which means the decision is automatically a draw.

Roco Carlow V Laurence Ward McEvoy's
Gary Baily Hanuman V Conor Murphy McEvoy's
Aslan B/stone V Lee Cosgrove Carlow
Ryan Devlin Hanuman V Karl Hodgers Louth
Ciaran Giblin Hanuman V Karl Hodgers Louth
JJ Powers Waterford V Karl Hodgers Louth
Jose Ramirez NUIG W V Conrad McFie Newry

I would just like to say "thank you" to Dave and all his lads for the show today, I'm only home as I got DRAGGED to the pub as the lads all really enjoyed themselves. Unfortunately I never got to say thanks in person
