Rugby team inspired me to win, says Dunne

Newly-crowned WBA super bantamweight champ Bernard Dunne admits that he was inspired by the Irish rugby team en route to his win over defending champ Ricardo Cordoba at The O2 Arena in Dublin on Saturday night.

Dunne floored the Panamanian three times in the 11th frame of an all-out war of attrition which is already being touted as the fight of the year.
