didnt see the fight but thats good to hear. 20-0. but ur right he's ready to step it up..not world title fight wise, but at least he can face some former champs or some actual top prospects. he's 2 good to be fighting guys like strickland.

but at the same time i think his management is takin their time, they dont want to rush him, which makes sense, but like u said they are milkin it a little 2 much. isnt he going back to europe 2 fight over there now?

A while back the rumor was that he was going to fight Jim Rock in Ireland but the time for that seems to have come and gone.

I remember he was in the audience at another Irish fighters match (Moore I think? a jr middleweight). It made me think maybe they're going to set up a fight with that guy.

yep going back to ireland for his next two fights. apparently he wasnt "sharp" but he seemed to have won just about every round.

I dont think Duddy should step it up at all.
hes still raw and needs loads more experience.
Hes not claiming hes the best middleweight or is ready to fight the best, so no one should try and make him.
its best to take his time and mature.

Taking it slow is one thing. He should fight people who can at least test him a bit.
