    His last Fight was a bad day at the office. This Kid is a great Fighter. The better the opposition the better He is, a real darkhorse.
    Pain lasts a only a minute, but the memory will last forever....

    Yeah im a big fan of McCloskey, think he'll definitley get his hands on a world title, would love to see him get a shot at Khan or Bradley.
    I think he's shown good power in his last few fights, doesn't have 1 punch ko power but enough to wear guys down and take them out.
    As for the British/Irish thing, he's catholic background(most catholics in the north would consider themselves Irish as opposed to Brittish) but obviously he's not to worried about politics and was happy to fight for the British title, and who cares really...


    yeah were still claiming him

    Without the help of Saddoboxing I prob wouldn't have known or cared about McCloskey.

    Yes, I have heard of the man. I know the names of many UK fighters thanks to the prediction contest and the numerous citizens of that country who post here.

    I'm actually surprised that you have never heard of him.

    I only watch British boxing on ITV and ETC, i don't pay for any channels that show other fights and ETC. And most of the time its hard to follow British boxing over here, especially when the paper is flooded with football, and hardly anything about boxing. And even on the news they only ever talk about the big fights over here.

    Yeah i think in the U.S you have about 3 or 4 networks that show Boxing on a regular basis.

    We have one free to watch network (ITV) and Sky Sports which basically costs you in excess of £40 to subscribe to.

    The fight scene is vast but the coverage isn't.... It's funny though, i dont even recall reading to much about McClosky in the Boxing Magazines over here

    Lol, if you take a visit to dungiven where he lives, it's clear to see that it aint britain! Anyway, no matter where he comes from, great fighter, and i love his style.

    Ha ha. Go into any bar in Dungiven and say that. see how long you last. joking aside, hes a smashing wee fighter who i have no doubt will win a world title. Lives and breathes the sport and a good head on his shoulders. Im not being funny here but if he was english the media would be giving him a lot more exposure. I remember johnny nelson almost lost for words when he saw him for the first time (think it was the british title fight) saying 'Where has this guy been?' obviously unaware he didnt turn pro til 24 or 25

    McCloskey's last fight was a last minute notice job after M'Baye pulled out.
