Gareth A. DaviesHOST
I mean, you look at the two Liam Cameron fights when the first one, which is a while ago now, it wasn't that long ago, it was two years ago, where it looked like he dragged himself and Liam Cameron out of the ring that night when people questioned his heart and desire in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Gareth A. DaviesHOST
And then, obviously, the rematch, he joins up with Andy Lee and he's looked brilliant under Andy Lee with that great camp they're enjoying in Dublin with Joseph Parker and Hamza Shiraz and Paddy Donovan all together, working together.
Gareth A. DaviesHOST
And they say there's a great unity in the gym and a great camaraderie.
Gareth A. DaviesHOST
He, he, he, he splunders Liam Cameron in the rematch that I think we were both at that night.
Kevin ByrneHOST
Fast forward to today and Galway's own Ciara Molloy is an undefeated 15-0 contender, the IBF European welterweight champion and one of the brightest talents in Irish boxing in what's looking like possibly a great era of Irish boxing.
Kevin ByrneHOST
So, Ciarán, with the news today that Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will fight one another on December 11th in Cardiff, does this mean we can finally look forward to Ciarán Malloy versus Paddy Donovan in Cork in about 2036? Hopefully
Kieran MolloyGUEST
a lot before that.
Kieran MolloyGUEST
No, it's brilliant to see.
6 MINS LATER
Kieran MolloyGUEST
And yeah, just enjoying it all as
Kevin ByrneHOST
well.
Kevin ByrneHOST
Since we last kind of delved into your story, you were a guest with us, obviously, before the second Crocker versus Paddy Donovan fight.
Kevin ByrneHOST
And you're one of the few to kind of pretty much call it right.
Simon JordanHOST
I mean, this welterweight class, Paul, I mean, it's got to be the best division right now.
Simon JordanHOST
If you go down here, I mean, we've done it the other day, you know, Devin Haney, him over there, Ryan Garcia, Tfema Lopez, Brian Norman Jr., Riley Romero, Richardson Hitchens, Barbosa's gone up there as well, Liam Pero, you were going to fight down at a different weight class, Keishon Davis, Paddy Donovan, Lewis Crocker, even the kid that fought the other day against Ben Vaughan, Konstantin Ursu, looks like a prospect as well.
Simon JordanHOST
This is a good weight class, isn't it?
Paul SmithPANELIST
Yeah, it's massive.
Sarah CunninghamHOST
just Katie what were some of your highlights from the undercard of that night
Matt MeehanGUEST
Paddy Donovan against Tyrone McKenna was a great fight.
Matt MeehanGUEST
Right.
Matt MeehanGUEST
I didn't expect such a shutout of a victory from Paddy.
Sarah CunninghamHOST
But even like we've got Dalton Smith versus Alberto Pueo at the end of October.
Sarah CunninghamHOST
Yeah, yeah.
Sarah CunninghamHOST
I would love to see Paddy Donovan been tested with that level.
Sarah CunninghamHOST
Because if he is truly about world contender, like world championship level, they're the people he needs to be kind of going up against next.
Pat FlynnGUEST
It was fucking nuts.
Pat FlynnGUEST
Even the time I walked out, Paddy Donovan, sure, man.
Walsh UnitHOST
Oh, yeah.
Pat FlynnGUEST
I walked him out at the SSC Arena.
Nedal HusseinGUEST
Crocker beat him.
Nedal HusseinGUEST
Donovan beat him.
Nedal HusseinGUEST
And a lot of these other guys beat him.
Nedal HusseinGUEST
Cattrall.
10 MINS LATER
Grant BrownGUEST
I want him to get one of these big names, but look, it sounds like none of them are mentioning him.
Grant BrownGUEST
The only hope for Liam was Haney to get that payday.
Grant BrownGUEST
I just don't want him to, whoever he fights next, which will be a voluntary, I don't want him to fight that Paddy Donovan and sort of maybe get upset there and just not say any losers to him, but maybe say losers to that guy and then doesn't get the big payday.
Grant BrownGUEST
I would like him to get one of the top four guys.
Kevin ByrneHOST
But I think about some of the things that have happened that have affected people's health in recent years.
Kevin ByrneHOST
Some of the fighters who've had to quit because of, brain injuries or brain scans going awry and then even in the last year or two you've had the fatality up in Belfast with John Cooney you've had Dylan Moran last year it was only about a year ago having to fight after a brain bleed following a bout with Tyrone McKenna Tyrone McKenna who you know arguably has gone on too long and was just put in with Paddy Donovan who's a killer, and he gets out unscathed, thank God, but, you know, hopefully he's not in any more fights like that with heavy-handed people who are going to shorten his, you know, could give him trouble later in life, you don't know, but you've got, you know, the brain bleed there for Glenn, you've got the brain bleed now for Lee Reeves, who, I'm not really sure of Libri's current status and we don't expect it, but he's still facing, let's call it, a very long road to recovery.
Kevin ByrneHOST
Yeah, I've been keeping
Jay ByrneGUEST
in touch with Jonathan O'Brien since day one and I speak to Jonathan regularly.
LeoHOST
[laughs] Moving up, um, disregarding my fucking animal abuse, um, Joe McGrail stops Matthew Borland in five.
LeoHOST
Uh, Paddy Donovan stops Tyrone McKenna in four I thought that was kind of weird how they were...
LeoHOST
I don't- it seemed like Tyrone was content to just get pummeled on for a little while, and then cut- just throw his hands up like, "Hey, I, I didn't get knocked out."
ShanadaHOST
Yeah.
ShanadaHOST
I, that wasn't much of a fight, to be honest.
ShanadaHOST
But I mean, good for Paddy Donovan-
LeoHOST
Stayed busy
ShanadaHOST
... got to fight in front of a huge crowd in his home country.
Simon JordanHOST
If you look who's in it, Tiafemo, Garcia, Cattrall, Haney, Pero.
Simon JordanHOST
You've got our own people in there, Paddy Donovan, Lewis Crockett, that's just lost a world title.
Simon JordanHOST
You've got Kirsten Osu coming.
Simon JordanHOST
Osu came out the other day, I thought, performed very well against Ben Vaughan.
Steve BunceHOST
Tight decision, 2024.
Steve BunceHOST
And that's those two wins, one of them controversial over Paddy Donovan.
Steve BunceHOST
So the British and Irish welterweight division during Conor Benn's glory years, great years, even when he was exiled for 18 months or whatever it was.
Steve BunceHOST
He's very active.
Richie WoodhallGUEST
I'll
Steve BunceHOST
tell you a fight.
Steve BunceHOST
The two absolute most preened welterweights in the world, Paddy Donovan, right, who loves his hair, looks after himself.
Steve BunceHOST
And Connor Benn.
