    My guess is it was Barry Hairy Nuts as he is Andy Lee's number one fan. Now, I will duck for cover and leave you too to sort out your differences:yep

    PS. jpab - I was at the Dunne-Poonsawat fight in the cheap seats and it looked nearly full - though not a sell-out. No chance Lee-Duddy sells out the 02. If that fight was in Ireland it would have to be up North.

    Everytime a thread on an Irish fighter goes beyond 5 pages Rob and Slap it's e-kicking off between Rob and Slap :lol:

    How big do you think it would be up here now Gas? Not heard a word about Duddy in years from any casuals seems to have dropped off the radar. I know most in Derry would of heard of him but he has lost the appeal in Belfast. Wouldn't take much to get him known again maybe a few interviews or that doc they had made on him.

    Both don't seem like the fighters to get the hype going for a fight either.

    Yeah mate, and the attendance noticably dipped from the Maestrito fight. It was a good crowd but definitely not sold out(and there were a few Thai's there to help the numbers). Which would hardly give you confidence for for Lee-Duddy.

    I went along to the Duddy-Eastman fight with a few mates and the place was bunged with Derry wans and West Belfast. Plus there were a fair amount of Lurgan one down cheering on Haughian - who got robbed that night. All in all it looked like a full house or not far off - for a non-tltle fight against Eastman. Duddy got good exposure leading up tot that - Stephen Watson from BBC NI went out to New York and did a really good documentary on Duddy - which I think did a good job in exposing him to the casuals.

    Duddy v Lee (ideally for a title) would be a good sell in the North. The proper fight fans would come out to see that plus the following from Duddy in Derry and Lee's fans from Limerick etc. With a good under card and promotion and I would put this in the Odyssey.

    I saw a few of the Thai's floating about the place - with their costume and traditional dress etc. The Irish birds were glammed up too - every second bird was wearing gold high-heels! But, I was pleased I managed to smuggle in a few double whiskeys just before the main event:good

    There was plenty of empty seats. It was a good crowd but in no way was it sold out. The Maestrito fight was a sell-out, not the Poon one. And gas seems like he'll vouch for that. And dont forget there was a good few Thai's there as well.

    I'll take that as a "I am too much of a snivelling wee ***** to apologies and admit I was wrong so I will swerve it" shall I?

    "I know for a fact one of you said it? Is this place for real" - the wee mockney gobshite said I said it. Why he the **** would I take responsibility for what BBB says?

    "I dont consider saying something was true arse-licking, and it was more your dick-headed reaction that fueled my response" - actually it was the second time the little ****** had a dig at me in just this thread. Instead of licking his arse why dont you ask him to provide evidence for his bull****?

    Same here mate. I was the first one to go up to Matt Macklin when he was standing at the steps where we were sitting and I think I seriously freaked him out.
