WATERFORD IT BOOKED their place in the quarter-finals of the Fitzgibbon Cup with a comfortable 2-22 to 1-12 victory over DCU in Carriganore this evening.
Last year’s beaten finalists were in control of the Group B contest from the off as first-half goals from Kilkenny duo Johnny Hayes and Jack Langton set the hosts on their way.
The pair found the net in quick succession after 14 and 18 minutes and Colm Bonnar’s side never looked back, despite Cathal Curran’s penalty for the visitors after half-time.
Waterford sharpshooter Austin Gleeson registered four points while Liam McGrath scored 10, including six frees.
A second defeat, following the 13 point reversal to IT Carlow in the opening round, ends DCU’s hopes of reaching the last eight but Waterford march on in emphatic fashion.
Feel bad for price really, he was going well and hit Ali with a good shot just before the bite and was probably on course for a stoppage win.
Price is not an elite fighter but could still pick up a domestic title
Things like this make me sure boxing is rigged…
@The Irish Pain: Would he not have went down after punches if it was rigged. Not try to bite a chunk out of his opponent.
@The Irish Pain: clearly from a person who doesn’t have interest,or intellect in boxing! but the comment before me is what i would have exactly said ,, boxing has corruption to the gills but that was a very unintelligent comment imo!
@The Irish Pain: is this not a direct example how this particular fight was not rigged?
