Well it's a more realistic chance of winning a world title rather than against Pavlik. If Duddy has no problems making weight he should win this.
What Duddy eved did to deserve a title challenge at 154? His best opponent was yori Boy Campas. I like the kid, but isnt he suppose to fight to be ranked at 154lb first? Its not the case of someone allready a world champion but i am not sure he would beat Philips. Phillips is the bigger puncher of the two and might be a better technician well, i would watch it doh
If it is true, it is B.S. for happening. They are really trying for this kid to become champion. If he can make the weight, he will win. They must be paying Phillips a decent paycheck for the title shot. Duddy might do well if he can make the weight. Mora did it. Mora vs Duddy at 154?
i put a post up after duddys fight and mora was the man they were going for now phillips who knows what is going to happen
Half of the forum sings this refrain, the other half says to go after the best fights available. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
