    Club fighters selling out the MSG singlehandedly now are they??

    He is Contender level in my opinion and his BoxRec rating pretty much reflects the level that he is at at the moment.

    Who would you like to see him fighting?

    So what if he sold the tickets to Martians!? Arum couldnt give a toss.

    Plenty of Irish and Irish American fighters in the US - they dont seems to sell out the MSG.

    Come on then, who should be be fighting?

    yes, because Duddy's chin has been proven to be shít.

    Run along now! you probably havent seen any of his fights coming out with bollócks like that.

    Duddy, despite this fight, is a feather fist.

    His opponent looked like Borat. This win means nothing and the Irish fans are still incapable of seeing how below-par their prospects are.

    Edit: Just saw the Boxrec rankings being used as a source :lol: And yes, Paul Williams would slaughter Duddy within a round.

    And saying the problem might be their nationality? No, I can tell a **** fighter no matter what their nationality.

    Duddy is below-average and is going nowhere.

    Seen a few of Duddy's fights, Matt Macklin would stop Duddy no problem.

    Glad to hear Duddy won and looked impressive. Hopefully he can get some meaningful fights in 2010.

    It's shocking the way people support their countrymen and hope they do well. It's ruining the sport in my opinion. :tired

    It's not support, it's unobjective 'this guy is totally infallible'

    It seems to usually be the Irish fans (not all of them) that cannot see any deficiencies in their fighters (I mean, look at the commentary the Dunne-Poonsewat fight, so blind they are making out that punches aren't landing)

    I must stress that not all Irish boxing fans are like this; but the fans that are can often be painful to talk with.

    Poonsewat lands a punch which floors Dunne.

    'I didn't see a punch'

    'He keeps headbutting him'

    :lol:

    Not as bad as the 'quote' I pulled up.

    I bet your boxing knowledge amounts to **** all. I'd suggest posting more than just 'don't worry about these other rational posters, our fighters are the best!'

    Put it this way, Barker would not have struggled with Billy Lyell or Brian Vera:lol:

    His skillset shows this.
