Absolutely buzzing for this, one of the biggest Irish fights ever in a IBF World title eliminator in my city!
Will have ticket info soon..
LFG!!😤
21-0⏳ https://t.co/R4oN3bMQsO
Belfast’s ‘Croc’, 27, and the Andy Lee-trained Donovan, 25, have been on a collision course for over a year, with each of them on a similar trajectory towards the top end of their division.
Their rivalry has marinated in interviews and on social media, albeit there has always been an underlying respect between them.
Each man is exceptionally confident that he has the beating of the other, but one of them will lose their undefeated record on 1 March while the other will join the likes of Callum Walsh and Aaron McKenna as a prospect boasting legitimate world title ambitions in the short- to medium-term future.
Ticket details for Crocker v Donovan will be announced in the coming weeks.
I started to read this and then realised I was 5 years too late .
“Where the muscles of the hips meet the muscles of the lower and upper back”? There are no muscles in the lower back.
@Gary: seriously??
@PhillyVanilli: he has to be trolling
Are you for real?? Avoiding wear and tear is simple..you clearly haven’t done any real work in your life..
@Brian O Connell:
Not a shred of it.
