Duddy is actually from Northern Ireland, part of Britain, and Mickey Ward is only of irish extraction, being born in America. My favourite Irish Boxer has to be Jack Doyle the singing thrush. If amateurs are included I'd go for Frankie Kerr 6 times National champion and Golden Gloves champion, a sure fire professional champ if he'd gone that way. .Another was Paddy Dowdall, and of course my old friend Jimmy Ingle whose family have become the top British trainers of champions. Being born in Northern Ireland does not automatically mean you are British. I guarantee that if you ask John Duddy what nationality he is, he will say he is Irish, regardless of the fact he is from "Britain"

I regret to disagree with you. It is impossible for anyone born in Northern Ireland to be anything but British-unless born in a foreign embassy. I don't know where or how you came to your mashuggena conclusion. Of course Frampton could relinquish his British citizenship if he wished and claim Eire status, where he'd be welcomed. But status and economics-wise he's be foolish.. Irish sporting organisations have a mangled, muddled concoction of so-called rules and regulations,, I'd assume made up in the back room of Murphy's Bar. An Irish cricket team can consist of Northern Irish and Eire citizens. As can rugby and hockey teams Soccer is a separate selection. I'm not sure about a few other of the international sports eligibilities. I was born and grew up in Ireland and was involved in several of the sports above mentioned, and knew many of the participants. This "dual availability" situation came up several times in the past,, and was always a hot topic in Dublin, where they still claim that the Six Counties are part of Eire. I don't think that I needed to go into all the above stuff, but, if a person is born in Northern Ireland, he is British. I came to my conclusion the same way many people have. I was born in Ireland, to Irish parents and am therefore Irish. The fact that the part of Ireland I was born in is currently under foreign rule is irrelevant. A large number of people in the north will agree with this
