    It was Big Just who was King, it was passed to Bartley, from Bartley it went to Dan Rooney, from Dan it was between Sweeney, Big Joe, Aney and after tat it went to shit until James Quinn MacDonagh took up the matle and he was the last great champion though theres so many great fighters from Trevor McGinley to Joe Joyce Jnr, Davey Joyce, to Cowboys Michael MacDonagh, theres Dohertys, Prices etc

    Okay brother plase tell us who he beat, There is a lie he beat Bartley Gorman when Bartley was drunk but the fight he is claiming was John Rooney vs Bartley Gorman. He did challenge the late Bartley who was 20 years his elder and died 2 years after. He claimed to have beat Jimmy Stockings but 3 hours after Stockings was so drunk his wife had taken their kid off him incase he dropped the child. Jimmy went looking next day for a straight go and Francis had left and stayed left for years.
    Name someone of any note Henry beat in a straight go, not headbutting a straight go
