I am watching this fight.
Saw Duddy about a year ago at Gleason's, cool guy.

I have not seen a Duddy fight, only read the articles. What do you guys think of him?

he's powerful, and throws a lot of punches, but as Ryan said, he's there to be hit. I don't think Campas has enough left in him to both take the punches and give Duddy any trouble, though.

[Easy-E]

Duddy is slow and gets hit alot, but he can hit like a horse. I was watching him spar at Gleason's last month, he couldn't get out of the way of jabs from amateurs. He's got alot of heart and a great chin, but he has slow hands and feet.

For the most part I agree, but i dont think his hands are that slow. He can throw some decent combos and hes the type of guy who can knock you out with one punch.
However, he definitly has plodding feet.

Im anticipating Campas to trade and get hurt early and often.

If you have slow feet, you're going to have slow hands. He throws combinations well, but he moves at such a slow pace that he's very predictable. He lacks head movement, and it's impossible to get away from punches when you don't move your head. I was at one of his fights at The Ballroom about 4 years ago, and what I remembered was that he gets hit more than any prospect fighting at that competition level should be hit. He went down in the first round, a flash but still he got hit with a punch that good fighters just don't get hit with. He got off the canvas to stop the guy in that round, but it's really like whoa. That fight told the story of him. He's exciting, but not invincible.

I asked him about him getting tagged and he said he tries to learn defense, but it just isn't happening for him.

He isnt close to invincible, but i think he will be involved in some wars in his time. His head movement and feet are ****, but he will be fine vs Campas.

Sounds like Duddy is lucky Campas is past his best. I expect Duddy to win, but if Duddy doesn't hit as hard as some you guys say he does then even an old Campas will give him trouble.



Iwatchboxing, thanks for the hook up.

[Mr. Ryan]

A prime Campas would give him hell.

[Kball15]

duddy is just a very very very entertaining fighter, that would do anything to get a win. i really like the guy as a fighter, but i dont think he's great or anything.

[Shanus]

Typical Irish fighter, he reminds me alot of Collins, he could give any MW out there trouble right now, him against Vanes or Miranda would be spectacular.
