BOXING: Middleweight John Duddy will put pen to paper on a three-year contract with the Irish Ropes gym in New York tomorrow. However, Duddy's Irish Ropes stable-mate James Moore, wants to step out of the Derry man's shadow and go his own way.

Duddy defends his WBC Intercontinental title against Freddie Cuevas at Madison Square Garden on June 10th.

The Irish amateur boxing team of Ken Egan, Darren Sutherland, and Eric Donovan will remain in Germany this week for training with the host's national team, as well as Cuba, France and Russia.
