Speaking to Peter Carroll on Eurobash, Duffy said: "There’s always going to be people throwing my name out there [because of our first fight]. For me, it’s just that far in the past…the option is always open. If that happened, I would love it. Croke Park, it’s a dream for anyone; it’s like a Dublin vs. Donegal match for me. It would be a huge fight and I’m pretty sure we would sell out Croke Park no bother, but it’s not something I’m pursuing, I just want to do this my way and I suppose I’ve got to take one fight at a time.
"If that opportunity presents itself, of course I’d love to have that fight again. Look what [McGregor] has gone on to do and obviously I would love to prove that I could beat him again. I’m not going looking for [a rematch]; I’m just focusing on my own thing. I’m not going to be calling him out and all this craic, it’s just not me."
Duffy is expected to return from a 15-month layoff when he meets Marc Diakiese at UFC London next month and will be hoping to avoid consecutive defeats for the first time in his career by getting back in the win column against the flashy Brit.Former UFC fighter shot dead while out for evening walk
