Alcoba has a detached retina, pulls out of Duddy fight

The undefeated Derry man had been set to meet Noe Tulio Gonzalez Alcoba but the Uruguayan has had to withdrew after yesterdays pre fight medical revealed he was suffering from a detached retina. Sadly the injury looks to have ended the 28-year-old's career.


Stepping in to fill the void is England's Prince Arron. The regally named Manchester boxer has 10 wins from his 12 professional outings and the ambitous youngster is promising to derail Duddy’s world title plans when they clash on Saturday night.

wow, duddy's really stepping it up against a 19 year old who's gone to 10 rounds just once.

 

In fairness, this is the second guy who pulled out, and this is last notice...at least it isnt golden johnson

 

Johnson would be a bigger challenge. ::

 

What a sissy, pulling out because of a little detached retina. Boo-hoo.

'Turnip farmin' Danny McGrealy fought on 3 hours notice with one detached retina in his left eye, and both a detached pupil and iris in the right one. He still went 29 rounds.

These pussies nowadays should play croquet or something.
