Billy and Zaur have given invaluable service to Irish Boxing! They deserve not just our gratitude but decent contracts and pension rights. Keep Billy as head coach!

Billy Walsh is a legend of a coach. This will be a major set back for Irish boxing.

Billy Walsh and Zauri Antia two of the greatest coaches in the World. The Irish Sports Council, Olympic Council of Ireland and the Government must behind the scenes intervene and ensure that they do remain as key part of Irish Boxing. Once that future is assured then the IABA Exec should resign en bloc and it is the absolute responsibility of ALL Irish boxing fans be they coaches,boxers,supporters and/orclubs to make their views known to the IABA and albeit perhaps too late by then to ensure that massive changes are made at if not before the annual conference in Ennis in October. Shameful betrayal of great coaches by those whose role should be to to improve NOT destroy the great legacy of Walsh and Antia .. and others too.
