Duddy ‘two fights’ from world title bid

UNBEATEN Derryman John Duddy appears to be just two fights away from the fight of his dreams — a world title showdown with the new poster boy of the middleweight division, Kelly Pavlik, Brian Peters said yesterday.

Duddy tackles former world title challenger Noe Tulio Gonzalez Alcoba at the Hunky Dorys Fight Night at the National Stadium on October 20 before another planned outing at the Kings Hall, Belfast on December 8.

Two wins before the end of the year would set Duddy up for a crack at Pavlik’s newly-won WBC and WBO world titles next March.
