watp72 54 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 ...Anyone heard anything about this lad apparently dying tonight? Olympic bronze medal winner @ middleweight for Ireland at the Beijing Olympics. All over the net that he has died. Sad news if true, 27 is no age to go. Ps, I don't care that he is Southern Irish and was apparently a Septic fan....... 27 is still no age to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoff 7 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 not heard but he was touted for big things after he turned pro, won his first fight that I know of. Shocking if true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

InnerwickBlue 16 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Apparently Frank Maloney found him and has had a heart attack. Strange thing to happen, apparently he was a fun-loving guy and he obviously had a great career ahead of him. RIP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KERRZO 5 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Him and DeGale had a decent fight in Beijing. Apparently he had a good future ahead of him Yeh him and DeGale and a few others like George Groves and Tony Jeffries could have brought back the glory days of the middle / super middleweight classes like Benn, Eubank and Collins. A tragedy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
