Tyson for Belfast

Posted on August 18, 2011 by Boxing Ireland

British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Tyson Fury will return to the ring on September 17 at the iconic venue of the King’s Hall in Belfast, fresh from his electrifying victory over Dereck Chisora at Wembley Arena last month.

Fury’s opponent will be named next week in Belfast at a press conference at the King’s Hall on Wednesday (24 August) when Hennessy Sports will also have the undercard in attendance for this highly anticipated event whcih will air LIVE in Canada only on Super Channel.

It had been hoped that Fury would face former Commonwealth heavyweight champion Martin Rogan in a British, Commonwealth and Irish title fight but a new opponent must be found after the Belfast man refused to fight Fury.

Fury commented: “I’m very disappointed in Martin because he was at my fight with Chisora in London and said right after that he wanted the fight. He was made a massive offer, he was getting the chance to fight in Belfast, he said he was going to beat me senseless and yet he walked away.

“In my opinion that is just the mentality of a bully boy. He talked the talk but he couldn’t walk the walk which must be embarrassing for him in Belfast. I know he lost twice to Sam Sexton in Belfast and maybe he didn’t want to get beaten up again in Belfast.

“But the Irish fans will know when they see me box in Belfast that they’re looking at the best Irish heavyweight around and I’m not going to walk away from any challenge. I’m going all the way to the World heavyweight title.”

Promoter Mick Hennessy commented: “The fight fans in Belfast can expect a great night’s boxing on September 17. Tyson Fury is the new star of Irish and World boxing and he’s very proud of his Irish roots so that’s why he wants to box in Belfast.

“We all know the history surrounding the King’s Hall so it’s a privilege for Tyson to fight there. We’ll officially finalize everything next week.”

Theresa Morrissey, Financial and Commercial Director at the King’s Hall said, “The Complex is delighted to welcome Hennessy Sports to the venue for the first time. The King’s Hall is the home of high profile boxing matches in Northern Ireland and we look forward to lots of entertainment on the night.”

To add spice to this already great event, former WBC Light Welterweight Champion Junior “The Hitter” Witter will be in action against Northern Ireland’s former Irish champion Stephen Haughian over 10 rounds.

Joining these fighters at the King’s Hall will be a host of talented boxers including Kid Galahad, Phill Fury, Ryan Greene, Willie Thomspson, Tommy Tolan, Phil Townsley and Kevin O’Hara.

Undercard to date:

12 x 3 min rounds – Tyson Fury (Galway / Nutts Corner) vs. TBA
10 x 3 min rounds – Junior Witter (Sheffield) vs. Stephen Haughian (Lurgan)
8 x 3 min rounds – Ryan Greene (Lurgan) vs. Willie Thompson (Ballyclare)

where to buy viagra safely viagra no prescription How Does Ejaculation Occur? TUESDAY, Jan. 5 (HealthDay News) -- Men with restless leg syndrome are more likely to have erectile dysfunction, new research suggests, but it's not clear how the two conditions are related. buy Viagra 200mg here viagra online sale online Yohimbine has a stimulatory effect and side effects include elevated heart rate and blood pressure, mild dizziness, nervousness, and irritability. Yohimbine's effects have not been studied thoroughly, but some studies suggest that 10% to 20% of men respond to treatment with the drug. To exert a measurable antitumor effect, tumor-specific T cells must be present in sufficient numbers and capable of trafficking to their targets. A direct correlation exists between the number of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and a favorable clinical outcome, as demonstrated in patients with metastatic ovarian cancer (20). Furthermore, the functional status of TILs has been correlated with a favorable prognosis in various human malignancies (2024). Because PDE5 inhibition augments antitumor immunity, we asked whether sildenafil treatment altered both the number and activation state of TILs. Histological examination of CT26WT tumors revealed a greater intratumoral cellular infiltrate in the sildenafil-treated mice compared with the untreated controls (Fig. 4 A). To better evaluate these differences, C26GM-bearing mice received either tumor-primed or no T cells followed by sildenafil treatment or no additional therapy. The tumors were excised 9 d later, and single cell suspensions were obtained. The T cell infiltrate was analyzed by flow cytometry for CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. This approach enabled us to accurately examine the entire tumor mass and reliably quantify the infiltrating lymphocytic population. Although no increase in CD4+ T cells was observed with PDE5 inhibition (Fig. 4 B, inset), sildenafil treatment greatly increased CD8+ intratumoral infiltration with up-regulation of the activation markers CD69 and CD25 (Fig. 4 C). There were no differences in activation markers between the sildenafil-treated group and sildenafil + ACT, whereas a significant increase in intratumoral T cells were observed in the sildenafil + ACTtreated group compared with sildenafil alone (Fig. 4 B and Fig. S4, available at http://www.jem.org/cgi/content/full/jem.20061104/DC1). Obesity increases the risk of erectile dysfunction, possibly because of accompanying cardiovascular problems, atherosclerosis - and hormonal changes.
