Re: This fight would interest me at **MIDDLEWEIGHT**...
After watching manfredo/lacy i have a hard time backing anything peter would do.. he was scared after he got knocked down and didn't fight after that, in a fight that he DEFINITELY could've won.. Unbelievable, and a complete let down..
If he fought duddy the way he fought lacy (not throwing punches or moving, just throwing short punches on the inside) then duddy would either KO him or win a UD.. If manfredo actually came to fight like he fought spina/pemberton then it would be a magnificent battle of chins and power punches i think.. but i'd bet on manfredo not showing up.

Its not so much a case of "Peter Manfredo what a boxer" !!!
Its a case of "Peter Manfredo what a boxer " ?? lol
Re: This fight would interest me at **MIDDLEWEIGHT**...
Andy Lee vs. Duddy
Andy Lee vs. Manfredo
Manfredo vs. Duddy
Manfredo vs. Andy Lee
I think Andy Lee Vs. Manfredo would be a much better fight than Manfedo Vs. Andy Lee ;D
Re: This fight would interest me at **MIDDLEWEIGHT**...
I have already predicted this fight. I'm convinced it will happen once Duddy takes a loss and his star falls a bit. Peter will give him a boxing lesson. Manfredo got intimdated by Lacy after the knockdown, but I don't think Duddy will be able to intimidate him. Manfredo has better defense and handspeed than anyone Duddy has faced to this point.
Re: This fight would interest me at **MIDDLEWEIGHT**...
...What do you mean AFTER the knockdown??? Manfredo was shit scared ALL NIGHT vs Lacy and we have no clue why.
Duddy could lose to Manfredo it is a risk....but less of a risk than fighting Sergio Mora....I do wish that Sergio fights someone worth a damn and gets his ass handed to him.
I think Duddy is more on par with those level of fighters than the Kelly Pavlik's of the division.

How would fight Mora be more of a risk? Mora got a gift decision in the second Manfredo fight, he took a year off at a critical time in his development, and drew with Elvin Freakin' Ayala, who lost twice to David Banks. I'm not saying Manfredo is great, but at least the guy is fighter and stays active.
I would give Mora about a 40% chance against Duddy and Manfredo a 60% change against him. I agree that Duddy is on a level with the Mora's and Manfredo's of the world. Pavlik would kill him.
Re: This fight would interest me at **MIDDLEWEIGHT**...
Lyle, if boxrec is correct, you'll be getting your wish. Mora is scheduled to fight Vernon Forrest in May at 154. He's going to be in deep deep trouble. Forrest is miles ahead of anybody he has faced.
For Mora's last fight, they dug up an old set of bones whose last fight was a loss to Zertuche in 2004. Now, coming off a that and a draw to Ayala, he's going to fight Forrest. This is almost as bad a Manfredo fighting Calzaghe.
