Egan fails to show as Irish battle US
Egan, it was learned, had not shown up at the High Performance Unit all week but the Irish coach, Billy Walsh, said they had hoped he would show up to take his place at the top of last night’s bill on which he was scheduled to box the 2008 Police Athletic League champion, Siju Shabazz.
“All I can say is that he’s not here,” a disappointed Billy Walsh said. “He hasn’t weighed in for the competition. We understand he had a problem with an injury last week but we have not had any confirmation of that.
