Duddy documentary joins Bell-Mormeck II on MSG

Press Release: In addition to Bell-Mormeck II (see below), MSG will also be airing a John Duddy Documentary this week. “The Contender” will make its US premiere tonight (March 13, 2007) at 10:30 PM ET on the MSG Network and re-air Thursday and Friday evenings (March 14-15). The Contender was produced by BBC Northern Ireland.  Meanwhile, a press conference was held today for Duddy's New York City fight against Anthony Bonsante this Friday. Bonsante said, “I’ve prepared long and hard for this fight. John’s a strong fighter. He has age on his side but I’m going to use my experience. I plan to be there in the12th round. Neither one of us is going to be hard to find. I’m excited to be here (in New York). I’m not Irish but I can still have fun on St. Patrick’s Day.” For his part, Duddy had this to say, “I’ve worked very hard -- I’m sure Anthony has too – for this fight. We’re both hungry and eager to give fans what they want. I’m looking forward to it. My career has come along and, hopefully, this will be my biggest fight. Stay in your seats. There’s going to be a lot of excitement whether it goes one or 12 rounds.”
