When John Cooney began his professional career 4 years ago we knew he was special. AL says in this episode “I never needed to hear or see John to know he was in the room” - that goes a long way to describing the presence he had.

He won the BBBoC Super Featherweight Celtic title in just his 10th professional fight, stopping Liam Gaynor in the first round on the Taylor V Cameron undercard & announced himself to the boxing powers.

We fully expected to follow John’s career all the way to the very top of the game - so to have to look back over his life & career cut WAY too short is a hurt too hard for words.
