    yep,apparantly it's ready to be signed,very uninspiring opponent but hopefully just a comeback fight and a bit of confidence after the smichet fight.

    he should fight pavlik,pavlik has fought much lesser opponents than duddy and is by no means invincible.

    i still favour kelly by stoppage though.

    that was my thread on boxrec - I understand that the contract is now signed and sealed.

    tough fight imo!

    I heard that after Howe Duddy will step up too fight a rated guy or Pavlik, if Pavlik vs Abraham does not happen in 2008. A good step up opponent for Duddy would be David Lopez , Lopez is tall 6'2 like Pavlik.:deal

    sbw,how do you warrant this as a tough fight,howe got blasted out of the ring by joey gibert,has rarely fought a fighter with a winning record and is from his record is hardly the biggest puncher in the world.i've never seen him fight so if anyone has any footage?honestly if duddy is to step up and fight contenders then he should be getting past a journeyman like howe.

    It's best for Duddy to cash in on a Pavlik fight now, I like Duddy a lot but he cuts to easy too have a long career and might loss to a club fighter before getting a title shot if he waits to long. Duddy stands to make a million dollers if fights Pavlik:deal

    I heard Duddy hired Burns as his trainer. Thats a good move in my opinion

    on the basis that Gilbert caught him cold (and was possibly on drugs!) and apart from that he hasnt been beaten in ten years.

    yea but he does have draws against people with pretty negative records and hasnt fought many winning fighters,come on slapper, you have to admit that on paper this is a fight duddy should be waltzing through.
