[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

There are reports coming out of Ireland stating that light heavyweight amateur Kenneth “Kenny” Egan, who won a silver medal for Ireland in the 2008 Beijing games, is on the verge of signing a deal to turn professional under the banner of New York-based promoter Lou DiBella. [details]

Egan was the best Irish boxer in the tournament and should have won gold IMO, will be interesting to see how he does as a pro.

I think it's fair to say the judges in that match had curiously selective vision.

But that's Olympic boxing.

It was sad to see the judges favor his opponent in the Olympic finals. Egan will do very well as a pro!

[The Monk]

Cool. I really liked the look of Egan in the olympics. He seems to have heavy hands and has been well schooled. He was the boxer along with Lomachenko who I wanted to see in the pro ranks. Shame he was robbed in the final.
