Sean Mannion (boxer)

Sean Mannion (born October 6, 1956 in Rosmuc, Ireland) is a former boxer in the light middleweight division. He boxed out of Massachusetts in the United States. His most notable bout was against Mike McCallum for the vacant WBA title, which he lost over a fifteen round unanimous decision. Newline Films reportedly plans to make a film about his life story. In January 2014, Rocky Ros Muc: Seán Ó Mainnín, a biography about Mannion's life and career was released. The book is written in Irish but there are plans afoot to release an English version. RTE Documentary on One made a programme about Sean's story - Never Knocked Down - produced by Robert Mulhern which won gold in the 2015 Celtic Media Awards
