Lee vs. Duddy In Possible Irish Boxing Showdown In November

Andy Lee, Irish middleweight boxer, chalked up the 19th win of his career yesterday evening in a thrilling bout against a game Anthony Shuler at the Horseshoe Casino in Hammond, Indiana.

Lee put on a class performance using his superior technical boxing ability and punching power to dispose of Shuler by KO in the eighth round.

In the last twelve months, the Limerick southpaw has been quietly working under the radar, picking up valuable experience in the gym and his four outings in Germany, Ireland and the United States.

Lee is presently ranked 3rd in the EBA and 14th in the WBA ratings.

Premier Irish boxing promoter, Brian Peters, this week put an offer on the table to both the Andy Lee and John Duddy camps to pair the star boxing duo in a prestigious boxing event at the University of Limerick Sports Arena, Ireland on Saturday, November 28 to be broadcast live by RTE.

I think Lee punishes Duddy!!!

As much as I like Andy Lee, I just think the dude gets hit way too damn much. He might punish John Duddy for 5 rounds but Duddy is a tough SOB and he'll be landing as he's getting beat and unless Andy has changed anything Duddy will wear him down.

If Andy could just avoid the right cross he'd be perfect, got great handspeed, decent power, and he can put his punches together pretty well...but he let Willie Gibbs have a fight with him when if you're a decent puncher you should have Gibbs out early
