D.T.B,
you mahe it sound like Louise just didnt bother turning up which was not the case!!
Both Louise and one of her children took ill in the early hours of friday morning. Once she realised that she was not going to be able to fight she phoned myself in the gym on Friday around tea time, I spoke with John O'brien within a few minutes of speaking to Louise and told him she was to ill to fight.
Granted this is short notice and very frustrating and not good for yourselves, the promoter or ourselves as a club but a fighter does not know when they are going to be ill.
Louise had trained hard for the fight and was coming into the fight on the back of a good stoppage win 4 weeks ago so i do not doubt her after the effort she had put in for this fight that this was indeed a genuine case of illness. If it is any form of consolation to yourselves then Louise is happy to come over to Ireland and fight Emma on one of your shows next year and we will cover all or own costs, this is not me throwing the gauntlet down but an offer to show or true apolgies for all concerned with this fight.
On a brighter note! well done to Cassie Murdoch of North Ayrshire Muay Thai on beating our Rebecca Caslin from TMAS on the junior show. Great title fight girls you done both clubs really proud.
Sorry for the long post
