Ireland's John Duddy

Home

 

Boxercise classes.

 

European title fight I was thinking maybe

 

A confidence builder against some bum.

 

He's been heavily dropped on boxrec , down to 30 and 14 in Europe

 

Boxrec ratings aren't worth a spunk.

 

Nah he keeps losing those.

 

I like Duddy...

He's extremely over-rated and hasn't got a chance in hell at being THE Champion but there is something about his style (or lack of it) that makes him worth watching.

I'd like to see him in against Andy Lee in an all-Irish, both overhyped fight that could be quite interesting.

 

The defeat could be a blessing in the long run, the pressure of being undefeated is gone and people are writing him off.

IMO he should forget about trying to tighten up his leaky defence, it's harmed his offence dramatically without improving his defence all that much. Revert back to the face first pressure style that made him such a popular fighter in the first place, a la LaMotta or Gatti. He certainly has the chin for it and would be far more effective offensively on the inside.

 

Maybe a tune up , work on his defence then a European title and try and get back on to the world scene

 

He's dropped to 5 on the wbo rankings which isn't that bad from 2 , wonder if he could make 154 which he said he was going to try and do

 

there been a link posted on page 536 of the irish boxing thread on the main forum ....it reckons duddys next fight will b in Ireland

 

take a warm up fight then go for a big name and chance his luck he gets no credit for wins agaonst bums so he should take the chance.

 

Never understood the big deal with Duddy. He's a gutsy fighter but he's very limited.
