When john started out he was a striker with very limited grappling and a naive striking game, would throw many head kicks etc

now he is a much more rounded fighter and tactically much wiser and way better striker than he was when he had his 1st few fights.

This will be a competitive fight and 1 that will be good to watch from a fans point of view.

Re, Paddy Boylan-i agree, he is the future alright and him and Paddy Holohan is another fight between 2 up and comers and a fight that will be good to watch..

Yeah they both are. This should be an interesting match, Dargan is very experienced at TKD (4th Dan) with a massive list of achievement in that sport! He has been doing BJJ with SBG for a year or so.

I have also had some press interest in this fight because Dargan is head doorman at Dublins celebrity club Lillies Bordello.

Apart from 2 all of the fights announced so far are Pro. I will get them updated for you over the holidays.

As for ruleset, We have been using mainly Unified Rules for pro's since July. We are trialing the new GNP C Class rules this time round, whilst I am in favour of them I am also mindful that the majority of northern teams are not. I'm looking at it from different views including problems with match making, clubs saying no etc

Dargan is ITF, used to train in the Exchequer Street gym with Brendan O'Toole and Gerry Martin. Will have useful stand up. A bit of a poser, fancies himself as a lady's man
