    Boxing aside, I can't allow such coincidences to pass without comment. You are correct, "Elementary my Dear Watson " was never uttered. But the components were both mentioned in a story centred about an Irish regiment (of the Queen) called "The Royal Mallows, supposedly quartered in Fermoy Co. Wexford, although Mallow itself, a small town, is is Cork County. By another coincidence I was born, bred and grew up in Dublin, a shortish drive away. And a third coincidence, my Dear Late Mother was a Cork girl.

    The co-incidence I've mentioned above, is that the obscure, long forgotten Doyle story I'm reading is a collection of short stories in which the Royal Mallows play a major part, in fact headed by a yarn about a sort of insurrection in the Mallows whilst in the thick of a death struggle against Arab and Omdurman Dervishes.

    With all the coincidences.....where's the betting shop??
    You're facing a big moment here. The universe is talking. It is telling you to place a bet on Haye in five or Wlad in nine.

    Do it, DO IT NOW!

    Enjoy the fight and night, chaps.
