Comments Thread For: Doyle Withdraws From Walsh British Title Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

There appears to be differing reasons as to why Ryan Doyle (11-1-1, 6 KOs) has had to withdraw from his British featherweight title challenge against champion Ryan Walsh on January 22.

Walsh (19-1-1, 8 KOs) will now face Scotland’s Darren Traynor (11-0, 5 KOs) – as announced today via a Frank Warren and Queensbury Promotions press release - in the first defence of his title on the same date next month at London’s York Hall live on Boxnation.

Boxing Scene reached out to Queensbury’s matchmaker Jason McClory to find out why Doyle had pulled out of the contest.

“I was told he [Doyle] doesn’t have enough time to train and can’t get the time off work. So effectively they pulled out of the fight.”

"Couldn't get the time off work so they backed out"

Sounds to me like a man with a healthy respect for his priorities..crazy that you could be challenging for a title and still have a full time job...I know Marquez worked damn near to the mid point of his career and fought part time but it's always mind blowing how many boxers don't make enough money to only focus on boxing.
