There's a lot of "Duddy vs" polls going around at the moment. It's tough to call right now, cause even before the Lyell fight Duddy was having a bad run. It remains to be seen what he'll look like when he comes back. I gave this to Manfredo, due to Duddy looking bad recently and Manfredo being a bit bigger and stronger naturally, but if Duddy looks impressive when he comes back...
I think its possible for duddy to improve somemore hes not at his best yet but mafredos all going down hill. I would give madfredo a chance this year
Mafredo is small for a middleweight but his boxing skills are way more polished than Duddy's who's a glorified Arturo Gatti.
Not really. Don't forget, Gatti was actually a beltholder at 130, beating a decent Tracy Patterson. For a few years afterwards Art hovered around world class. Duddy, on the other hand, has never beaten a world class opponent, and by all appearences , never will. Duddy is strictly a clubfighter lacking the power that Gatti had. There is no comparison.
he's not a small middleweight:huh he's a small supermiddleweight, thats why he's trying his luck at middlweight ow. he's a full middleweight, maybe even slightly bigger than the class naturally. Manfredo is coming off of that destruction of smichet, the same guy who took duddy the distance, cut him up and beat him up. duddy also hasnt been moving his damn head. manfredo isnt a jabbing machine, but he would give duddy's stationary head problems, Manfredo is an underrated puncher
