Another Hall-of-Famer from that era, Jake Kilrain (29-5-8, 17 KOs), lived in Somerville and Quincy, both Boston suburbs. Kilrain (1829-1899) also reigned as world heavyweight champion.

Irish boxers from Greater Boston continued this rich tradition through the end of the 19^{ကြိမ်မြောက်} and beginning of the 20^{ကြိမ်မြောက်} centuries with world champions and top contenders such as welterweight Paddy Duffy (31-3,16, 18 KOs), Lawrence welterweight Mike Glover(Cavanaugh – 30-5-5, 16 KOs), and Charlestown welterweight သူ Mike “Twin” Sullivan က(28-6-16, 17 KOs), and Newton bantamweight Jimmy Walsh (33-10-20, 14 KOs)

In the 1950’s, Woburn lightweight “Irish” Tommy Collins (61-12, 44 KOs) was dropped 10 times at the Boston Garden by world champion ဂျင်မီကာတာ, until he finally succumbed in the fourth round. His gutsy performance, သို့သော်, earned him an appearance on the popular Ed Sullivan Show.

Arlington heavyweight တွမ် McNeeley (37-14, 28 KOs), unsuccessfully fought for the world title in 1961, stopped in the fourth round of his Toronto fight versus defending champion Floyd ပက်, and McNeeley’s son, Boston-native and later Medfield resident ပေတရုက, “လေပြင်းမုန်တိုင်း” McNeeley (47-7, 30 KOs) famously was stopped in the opening round by “Iron” သူ Mike Tyson in the latter’s first fight after his release from prison.

In the 1980’s, Irish boxers made their way to Boston to fight; some returned home after their careers, others relocated in the area. တွင် 1984, Ireland-native Sean Mannion (42-14, 13 KOs), who had moved to the Dorchester section of Boston, lost a 15-round decision in Madison Square Garden to သူ Mike McCallum for the World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Middleweight World Championship.

Arguably the most famous and popular Irish-American boxer, outside of Sullivan and ဂျက်ဗိုလ်ချုပ်ကြီးဒမ်စီ, is Lowell junior welterweight “Irish” Micky ရပ်ကွက် (38-13, 27 KOs), who was involved in three Fight of the Year award winners, two from his epic trilogy with အာတူရို Gatti, and the first boxer with more than 10 career losses to earn a $1-million purse.
