The Rocky Road
News Ireland
233 episodes
1 week ago

An Irish boxing podcast that fans of all sports will love. No one gets to the top without overcoming adversity, in sport or in life. But as Rocky Balboa said, ‘it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward’. Every week on The Rocky Road, host Kevin Byrne and producer Simon Maguire will bring you the distance on some of the wildest journeys the sport has to offer. Pain, pride, passion and politics, the world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It's about how much you can take, and keep moving forward.

Peter O'Donnell & Jim Moore remembered
Irish boxing has suffered a profound loss, mourning two men who dedicated their lives to the sport and shaped generations of champions. Today, we pause to celebrate and honour the immense legacies of Peter O’Donnell and Jim Moore. Donegal's Peter O’Donnell, affectionately known as "Mr Boxing," was a club founder, ring announcer and fight fanatic. We’re joined by his great friend, journalist Chris McNulty, to talk about the man whose influence stretched from the small parish of Raphoe right up to the National Stadium. Then, we pay tribute to the late Jim Moore, the dedicated co-founder of Arklow Boxing Club and a pivotal figure in the IABA High Performance Unit. Jim's coaching genius helped drive Ireland's success on the world stage, coaching the next generation to major medals, including at the inaugural Youth Olympics. We are joined by Jim’s best friend and a coach he mentored, Jimmy Payne, to share personal stories of a man he will never forget.
