What an absolutely cracking fight this evening!! Bernard Dunne gave 110% against Ricardo Cordoba for the WBA Super Bantam-weight title. The atmosphere in the O2 area looked incredible and the crowd singing Olé, Olé was the cherry on the icing on the cake.

Bernard was the underdog for the fight, but you wouldn’t think it to watch it. He fought with all his heart and destroyed Cordoba by Knock-out.

Cordoba was still down after about 10 minutes after the fight, he took some serious punishment.

What a night for Irish boxing and Rugby , congrats to Bernard and his team.

Update: Cordoba has been taken to hospital, I hope he’s ok and wish him a speedy recovery.
