no. he's the first john duddy

infact he's leagues above what collins could ever of been for skill & punch power

collins was just abit of a very awkward counter puncher pre eubank & just a tough pressure fighter post eubank, he was a nobody in terms of talent

duddy is a somebody

agreed, I never enjoyed watching Collins fights, I never saw him land a clean punch to be honest!

I'm sure he did, before anyone gets smart, but he never looked like he did, bit like Hatton these days

EDIT: I've not seen Duddy, but I'm always dubious of Irish fighters before I've seen them probably because of Collins!

Collins was a tough cookie, if he wasn't he would have lost to Eubank and Benn.
But John Duddy isn't Steve Collins, he's John Duddy.

Whats he like then. What's his style. Has he got good hands, good pop? I'm guessing he's got good stamina/workrate because thats the comparative advantage of most white british/Irish fighters?

Gonna get a title shot one day? Win a title?

John Duddy another Steve Collins???
