    I think he has a great story to tell, both his career highlights and disappointments. He blew out some tough fighters as LeDoux, Young Sanford, Mike Weaver, Mike Schuette and a shot Mando Ramos. Even his losses have some redeeming insights, and let's not forget a terrific amateur career. Duane was hard luck fighter in several regards. I felt his only really "bad" loss was to Big John Tate, who was a lot better than many folks recall. Duane just took too many shots from Tate when he should have either ducked, ran away or clinched. Or even just "took a knee" to make it through the round. I don't recall Duane ever speaking about the Tate loss. Maybe someone out there knows Duane and could encourage him to come over here and discuss boxing? I thought FARMBOXER claimed to know him. True FARMBOXER?

    I have read that article - - - frankly I have doubts that it was a real encounter . . . .
