    got my ticket today row k do you think i will be able to see the fight? Micheal sweenny and the cuban mike perez are on the undercard so it should be good. Perez looks good i've seen a small bit of him on youtube. He Is keeping awful busy he is on the macklin and mccloskey undercards as well thats 3 fights in 22 days!!!!!

    29 days actually but that is still busy. Reminds me of young mike tyson with all the fights.

    Great article, I read it the other day. That's how we should think of Duddy, he has decent skills, decent power and will give it 100% every time. If Duddy is in a great scrap then he's flawed while Wladimir hardly gets hit in unifying two belts and he's boring. You can never please everyone so we should just accept Duddy for what he is and enjoy the battles he'll give us.

    If his previous fights are anything to go by that will be about 2 rounds in the ring in total.

    Very true but we always say that about Duddy, and he always says he is improving his defence but we just don't see it.

    Maybe he has and he had an off night but we can always be guaranteed that Duddy will give it his all and not give up. He has a chanvce against anyone at middle with his will and determination.

    brilliant article,absolutly loved it, many fans should read this and think why they support boxing;
    a) for the glories and riches at the top echelons that is coincided with the safety and boredom of 'slappsies'.
    b) for the sheer passion and will to succeed and entertain shown by the majority of boxers who enter the ring.

    i will whole heartedly support duddy and any other boxer who goes into the ring and gives it his 'all' anyday over an overpaid wannabe who runs,slaps and holds.
