Tesco never seen it coming.

Wonderful fight. I think malnourishment knocked your man out in the end though.

Spore · 22-03-2009 01:22AM

Legendary fight, Dunne won about eight rounds. Hope Cordova recovers, looks like he's in a bad way. But...

Go on the Ireland!!!

Seriously the best day in Irish sport for a long time.

Great day for Irish sport. Woop!

edit: although, technically, they weren't the same day right? :pac:

I don't know too much about boxing, but I thought the ref should have ended the match sooner?
Was the ref right in letting it continue?

Well Done Dunne! Fantastic fight.

Recession me hole lets just all take up sport and win all round us.

Not a bad day at the office for the irish...not a bad day at all

Great day for Irish sport, but I don't like Dunne [don't hate me!]. He's like a wee cocky cock fighter. It's all bells and whistles when he wins but when he loses he looks like a twit. Andy Lee has a far better personality when it comes to competition. I would rather see him as Ireland's main boxing prospect.

JerryHandbag · 22-03-2009 01:36AM

Dunne is the man, what a day...the way we all feel now, I reckon we could win the world cup of hurling!:D

legendal · 22-03-2009 01:37AM

Who wouldn't want to be Irish right now?

Ah now. Lets not get ahead of ourselves:p

Well done to dunne but have to say he irritates me,he reminds me of robbie keane,happy as larry when he wins but always has an excuse or blames someone else when loses.
Was hoping that he'd be shown up by cordoba tonight,think dunne having home crowd behind him was big advantage(as always is).

Andy Lee is much more gracious fighter and an all round good guy I really like him everytime i see him fight he puts on great show.
Also good for limerick as most of stuff ya hear in news is bad so sure he'l inspire a lot of young lads to learn discipline of boxing.
Katie Taylor has me wanting to sign up to local boxin club!

A lot of people talking crap about Bernard Dunne. I doubt you've even heard him talk. He's a gentleman, a family man and a fireman!

He's very humble and as it turns out a world level fighter.

thusspakeblixa · 22-03-2009 01:49AM

I'll put up my hands and say that I wrote Dunne off but I'm so glad that he's proved me wrong.
Andy Lee fought very well too.
What a day.

Well done Dunne, wonderful fight from start to finish. Yer man gave it absolute socks, hope he's alright.

SV · 22-03-2009 01:50AM

Now all we need to do is win The World Cup.

An Capall Dubh · 22-03-2009 01:50AM

i def reckon we'd win da WORLD SERIES OF HURLING AND FOOTBALL, go on Ireland!!!!!!!

Some fcuking fight.!Up the Irish.!

rovers2001 · 22-03-2009 01:52AM

Fantastic fight tonight and superb entertainment and yes some previous posts are spot on about Dunne been a cocky so and so but the bottom line is he put up a hell of a fight tonight against a very difficult opponent (hope he is ok) and is A Champion of the world!!!!!!.
