    No disrespect to Nina Carberry but wtf does Katie Taylor need to do to get some recognition. Arguably the best athlete, male or female, we have ever produced.

    I was coming in here to write exactly what you said. I think it is an absolute joke that Taylor can’t even win the Female award let alone the overall one. Does she really have to win Gold on the Olympics just to get some recognition? I think there’s a very strong case to say she’s the greatest athlete this country has produced. Can’t remember the exact top 10 greatest list compiled the last time but Stephen Roche wasn’t even in it if Im not mistaken. Bit of a joke considering what him and Taylor have achieved.
