There are not too many who have championed Anthony Cacace more than Carl Frampton.
'The Jackal' has constantly heralded 'The Apache' as world-class over the years and never gave up on his fellow Belfast man.
Jono Carroll defeats three times world title challenger and recent Michael Conlan opponent Miguel Marriaga on points (100-90; 99-91; 98-92) to move to 24-2-1.
On this day in 2014 Irish boxing's longest-running grudge was settled in Spike O’Sullivan's favour. The Cork middleweight stopped Anthony Fitzgerald on the Return of the Mack card with that uppercut.
Heartbreaking, you can see how much it means to him.
Regardless of what he decides to do next Michael Conlan is an Irish boxing legend. An Olympic medalist, our only WC Gold medalist, his Rio bravery forced am change and he was key changing attitudes toward success in Team Ire.
An iconic moment in Irish Sports. 12 years ago today, Katie Taylor took home gold at London 2012. A once impossible dream achieved and a moment that changed the dace of boxing forever.
