    Group B. First round. Two pretty evenly matched fighters. New York,s John Duddy against Frank "The Animal" Fletcher. 10 rounds.
    Please give prediction & reason for decision.
    First round is ten rounds.

    Fletcher would really beat up Duddy. It would be exciting at times but Fletcher just to much and IMO a tier above Duddy. Duddy has a tough chin, but Fletcher stopped fighters better and just as tough. This would be exciting from the begining with Duddy maybe stealing a round early, but it would also be apparent that hes outgunned and by the 7th hed be rescued by the ref.

    Animal Fletcher would stop a game Duddy and bust him up.

    In a toe to toe slugfest. could a nasty cut, really hamper Fletcher? Is Duddy at least on par with Clint Jackson or Singletary? To take Fletcher into a war.

    Fletcher by tko. Duddy's a tough guy but I don't think he'd hold up under the pressure and ferocity of a prime Fletcher's attack. Guys who beat Fletcher outclassed him wiith SOMETHING. Roldan with physical strength, Mugabi with power. Duddy just doesn't have an overwhelming tool to keep the Animal off him.
