I don't know, maybe he just didn't get the chance.
You obviously know better than me how the system works but I expect that the best he could have realisitically hoped for was modest domestic honours, maybe a British title shot.
Given that that was his limit he probably felt he could make more money fighting regularly for a paycheck rather than fight every 3 or 4 months and have a 30 or 40 fight career.
You're career is just about to take off and you're full of hope and optimism.
Maybe if you lose 3 in a row and realise you'll never be a star but you still love boxing then maybe you'd do the same?
But what am I saying, your Irish all you have to do is turn pro and you'll sell out in Dublin!![]()
