    How does this affect his style of fighting??? will he be more powerful at this weight or will he stuggle due to the sacriface of making 154? He was one of the best Middleweight prospects, how will he do against the following top young guns at 154:

    Joel Julio
    Alfredo Angulo
    James Kirkland


    Thanks.

    He beat Quillin twice in the AMS, he is not afraid of him. I do understand your sarcasim though...

    Joe Greene would box his ears off again!

    Besides, isn't Kid Chocolate at Super Middle?

    Anyway, the move to 154 should only help Greene. He's young, and his frame seems suitable for 154, so I doubt he'll have trouble making weight.

    I have very high hopes for Greene!

    But....I will say, with 99% confidence, that Greene, even as 'green' as he still is, would beat the living **** out of Duddy if they fought. Easily!

    Quillis don't want no part of Greene, trust me.

    I'm almost positive he fought as a super middleweight the last two times I saw him.

    He's also much more polished and a much more complete fighter. Greene would make him look foolish.

    Hey Rums,

    What do you think are his chances against the fighters i named in my first post?

    I honestly do not know enough about them to make a fair assessment, but it would appear Julio might be just a tad too experienced for him at this point.

    154 is ripe for the picking good move for Green.

    Interesting news. I'm a fan of Greene and have followed his career as closely as I can. I think it might be a little early for him to be fighting Julio; I think Joel might decision him. I'm a fan of Kirkland, too, and I would prefer to have them wait a while before they meet. I haven't seen Angulo fight so I am not sure how that one would go.
