    Are they **** all "world titles", either in boxing or the terms of this question
    !?!

    McAuliffe, McTigue, McGuigan and Collins are correct. One more AFAIK, born in Clare, if its any help

    Jack Dempsey
    George Gardner
    Tom McCormick

    That give us 7 without the ones not recognised for Dunne, Rock and Carruth.

    ****, forgot about Dempsey. Gardner was the other one I had.

    Didn't read the small print on McCormick's record at Boxrec.com Not sure he ever held a belt by reading those lines. Still counts I'd say though

    So yeah 7 it is
