Duddy retires, fight with Lee is off

[Nameless]

Apparently that the irish all brawl won't happen and that it was the last time we saw Duddy in the ring:

Boxing - Duddy retires; Lee fight off

[Dark Lord Al]

to be fair he was only ever a club fighter , good luck to him wotever he does from here

[Hornfinger]

He's shit, he's realized he's shit, and now he's buggered off. Good on him in a way. Makes me wish the vast majority of american fighters in the heavy weight division would do the same.

The man took a shot.,..Trained hard and did his best....Did not work out for him but he provided some very entertaining bouts...More entertaining then most of the top names that are supposedly the "Elite" of boxing be them American HWTS or otherwise...

WTF have you ever done?....Have you ever stepped in the ring? Fought and ex world champion?...Have you ever filled an MSG crowd?.....You talk about the guy like he was everything that is wrong with boxing....In fact Duddy is everything that boxing should be!!!!!!

A man that gave it his all and knew when it was time to walk away instead of living a pipe dream.....He sdhowed respect to not only the game but those in it...And he did the most important thing any fighter could have...Gave the fans their moneys worth.....You have yet to make a worthy post......

As for American heavyweights yes the division is weak in general right now AND there are no top US fighters and has not been in a long time but look at the ATG list......Everyone in the top 10 is from where?

Daxx that guy is a button pusher, he's almost on VD's level but not quite. He doesn't have any boxing knowledge to back up his shit.

Duddy realized he was shot. Chavez Jr shot him

Yeah I know he is and I usually just ignore him but shit man those comments about Duddy are uncalled for hell it is no secret he was not elite but the man was a guy who gave you your moneys worth and knew when he should call it a day....Too bad more fighters would not follow his suit...we would have less guys suffering later on after their career.....Plus Duddy has always shown to be a gentleman

[donnydarkoIRL]

Andy Lee has a very frustrating career!
I heard a radio interview with him recently and he was relishing the thought of this fight.

Duddy seems a good guy. Glad he's a big enough man to make a decision like this in time. Best of luck to him.

[BoxingGorilla]

I liked Duddy.

[Master]

Respect Duddy for admitting he did not have it and saving the boxing public being cheated out of a poor showing. Many other fighters should have done the same like Ruiz.
