I DO believe it, Daneo. Certainly Tua and Cameron have done it without Duco. And I'm sure others have too. The problem is that Berridge had a sub-par performance in the US, is not ranked anymore, and lost a key connection with Duco. So all I'm saying is that he needs to get lucky to get a good fight overseas while based in NZ. I wish him well. He's one of my favourite fighters, and he's improved himself both personally and professionally.
What would I do if I were Berridge? Probably look to re-match Blake Caparello or someone top ranked in OZ, win, and then use that as a platform to fight a top 15 guy and get back in the mix. Caparello just won the Asia Pacific title. Berridge has power, and he's a southpaw. Good combination. And a team he trusts.
