CURRENT EUROPEAN CHAMPION SOULEYMANE M'BAYE FOR
THE EUROPEAN TITLE IN HIS OWN BACKYARD ON FRIDAY
6TH NOVEMBER 2009.

TO TAKE PLACE IN THE MEADOWBANK SPORTS
ARENA IN MAGHERAFELT FOR WHAT PROVES
TO BE A VERY EXCITING NIGHT FOR
IRISH BOXING.





This is shit. I have bought my ticket for Rogan, which means I cant watch McCloskey win the European title. Also McCloskeys fight will be on SKY, and Rogans wont.And to further confound the problem, John Breen has 4 fighters boxing on Rogan promotion and he also trains McCloskey. A sad night for Irish boxing:verysad

PS. Mike Tyson is appearing at The Waterfront on the same night.:lol:

[achillesthegreat]

Will big Rogie be shown on Irish TV anywhere?It might be on BBCNI, but that is only a guess on my part.:huh

Amazing that we go all this time without big good shows on tv and sround the cities then we get these two on the same night in the same town. ******, Matchroom and sky should be flogged.

I think Matchroom and McCloskey were always promised that date by SKY but ****** tried to muscle in[after Rogan got injured and had to postpone his original date] as Matchroom were slow announcing there promotion.:nut

[LHL]

:rofl Can't wait to see the atmosphere in the McCloskey fight think it will be on par with the Lindsay fight maybe better... Hopefully anyway

[billy nelson]

paul is an outstanding boxer who will go on to world honours if kept busy

It will, those Derry ones will go nuts for McCloskey, it was the same for Duddy when he fought at the Kings Hall against Eastman.

id be inclined to agree with you on that one, ****** acted on the assumption sky would be after the rogan fight way more than mccloskey but fair play to matchroom for standing their ground. franks second guessing people backfired here it seems. will be interesting to see if he moves the rogan fight to the saturday or gets bbcNI in on it or asks for some sort of split feed, although thats highly unlikely imo.

interesting to see the reaction mccloskey gets and if he wins the following he could have. sky could be back a few times with him as a bit of a cash cow id say with the people up from derry and dungiven areas he could consistently fill the kings hall. does anyone know the capacity of this meadowbank place?

[irishhitman]

mccloskey should win this no probs...as long as he does not do anything too rash...mbaye can punch, so paul needs to be careful
