Favorite Irish Boxer?

[Irish Steel]

HE can be Irish-American too.


Mine is John Duddy, he is a 20-0 middleweight, and in another year or two, he should be a serious contender.

[heerko koois]

dave "boy"mc Cauley.........or Barry Mcguigan

[nulty]

Out of current fighters, Bernard Dunne.

[Black Eyes To You]

Mickey Ward

[heerko koois]

:good Mickey Ward

[Bigcat]

Dave McCauley v Fidel Bassa was incredible..

Barry Mcguigan was awesome his fights with Eusebio Pedroza , Juan Laporte and Bernard Taylor were excellent..

Eamon Laughran was a good one too, his surprise Ko of Donovan Boucher was awesome..

Eamon Maghee was also tough as nails , he is still the only man to put Hatton on his ass..

Steve Collins is a celtic legend, he beat men he just wasn't supposed to.. true warrior..

Damien Kelly is an unheralded hero , he just has had a lot of bad luck.. He suffered the worse decision i ever saw.. He must be in the running..

God bless..

[Bigcat]

How did i forget Wayne McCullough..............

Possibly the best..........

[RUSKULL]

John Duddy (fun to watch)
Micky Ward (excellent body puncher)
Wayne McCullough (warrior)

[RUSKULL]

Gerry Cooney was fun to watch KOing or getting KO'd.

[Club Fighter]

James Moore - Good kid, great set of skills, and humility to boot. Mark my words, you're gonna hear a lot more about him soon. He's fighting in the Bronx in a couple of weeks. I may attend.

[Archie_Moore]

Micky Ward...

No question

[fightking12]

Mickey Ward
:bbb

[Motor City Sam]

Don't really have a favorite, but I'll go with Andy Lee because he's training out of Detroit now.

[thunder06]

Micky Ward and Muhammad Ali.

[Bummy Davis]

Irish Joey Archer beat Huricane Carter and Dick Tiger, I thought he did enough to take Emile Griffith Middleweight crown but the Judges gave Emile the split, Billy Conn, Mickey Walker,Steve Collins, Jerry Quarry, Mickey Ward(nice guy)Jimmy Mclarnin

[Bummy Davis]

Micky Ward and Muhammad Ali.

Ali was only half irish, i think a 1/4 on each side:scaredas:

The question was who's your favorite and I'm not Irish myself so I really don't keep track of Irish fighters. I liked his hair back in the early 80's.

I dunno bro, i got a bad feeling...got some learning to do, put it that way. We'll see.

I like Billy Conn. Balls of steel and superb craic. Those are the two pre-requisites for a fighting Irishman, no?
