RAPHOE ABC’s Conor McGurk had no joy on Friday night, fighting in Edinburgh.
The Raphoe middleweight traveled as part of a Two Castles ABC selection.
Raphoe coach Gary McCullagh also made the trip with the Tyrone-based club, led by head coach John Gallagher and with newly-crowned Irish Elite champion Jude Gallagher in tow.
McGurk was edged by Meadowbank Boxing Club’s Andrew Sutherland.
The tournament took place in the Georgia Suite at Tynecastle Stadium, home of Scottish Premier League club Heart of Midlothian.
McCullagh said the Raphoe puncher turned in an impressive display and could count himself unfortunate to have come out on the wrong end of a 3-2 split decision.
