Personal satisfaction propels O’Neill

Irish boxing has gone from strength to strength over the past decade and more, medals galore won at European, World and Olympic level.

One of those who has already qualified for London 2012 is Kilkenny man Darren O’Neill.

At the recent National Elite finals, held in the National Stadium last Friday night, Darren was crowned middleweight champion for the fourth year in a row. Satisfying, yes, but not as satisfying as it might have been.
