I haven't seen anything posted about our recent medals in Moscow. Absolutely outstanding performances by all fighters in Russia, 5 medals, gold, silver and 3 bronze. It shows that so much can be done with so little when it's applied correctly!

Have to add that after watching Darren O'Neill, and seeing the punch count (he landed 37 to the Russians 24) and the rotten refereeing, it shouldn't be a surprise that they handed a decision to the home fighter, but scoring punches for the Russian that were landed by the Irish fighter is sickening.

What an achievement, this is a genuine world sport that we excel at - these guys should be superstars in Ireland. I hope they get the attention they deserve!!
