John Duddy's Nationality

[knowitall]

Despite numerous requests and posts on this subject John Duddy's nationality has not been changed from British to Irish. What is the problem here? It is really simple, John Duddy is Irish, he was born In Derry, Northern Ireland. Why do the administrators on this site refuse to acknowledge this? As was pointed out before, Andy Lee was born in London to Irish parents, moved back to Ireland at the age of 14, and is listed on Boxrec as Irish!
Now if Andy Lee is Irish in Boxrec's eyes even though he was born in England, then why is John Duddy apparently British, even though he was born in IRELAND?!

Here's a thread on the nationality issue.

This does not explain why Duddy's nationality is stated as British when his former management Irish Ropes explicably asked for it to be changed to Irish.
Why won't Boxrec change this?
How do Boxrec have Andy Lee's nationality stated as Irish but not Duddy's?

I'm locking this thread as it's been done to death enough times. You will find the only people who really think nationality is that important are the distasteful rabid right wing, as we old communists used to chant "Nationalism is Fascism !"
