That Bum. I think his name is Duddy

[El Kabong]

He's like Gatti, he's pleasing to the people who don't truly follow or understand boxing. He just fights in an exciting manner.....and there is a large population of his countrymen or their descendants where he fights.

Cuban, Mexican, Russian and fighters from any other country get similar kinds of support.

When you don't know who is fighting and you're just the average guy, you might be inclined to "cheer for the ____ guy" because you are ____ and you want to have some pride in your ethnicity, race, country, religion, or whatever.

So it's probably just dumb luck that John Duddy became so popular and it's his ability to draw crowds and keep winning that has moved him up the rankings

Maybe it's the luck o' the irish

[El Kabong]

As often as he gets hit in the face.....the only luck it could be is Irish

now Irish people don't get angry at me...you are well known and prideful of your fighting spirit and historical willingness to fight whoever whenever...I should know because I got some Irish in my blood too
