Callum Smith v Rocky Fielding

First topic message reminder :

Afternoon all,

Who's watching this at the weekend? Predictions anyone?

I actually think it's going to be a lot tighter fight than most are suggesting. I'm hoping for a fight of the year candidate.

Cheers.

That was an anti-climax, easy to say after the event but an outcome most of us could see coming.

Outclassed...and Amateurish...

Well done Smith you looked excellent..

Time to get a job Fielding.

Awesome Smith, looked superb and showed he was the better fighter from the very first punch.

I saw it coming. When I said I expected a competitive fight I was only joking obviously.

Terrible survival efforts from Fielding, does he not know how to hold or move away?

Credit to Callum Smith looked great

Rocky fielding was lacking in survival instincts, just got blown away by Smith, Callum you are very good i just don't know how good you are yet

Keep an eye out for more expert predictions in the near future.

Fielding is fleshy...Boxes straight up and keeps his chin in the air...

I did say it would be a one sided beat down. .

Just expected Smith to take his time..

He's huge at the weight...Beats Groves for me...

Fielding is ordinary I'm afraid.

Wow! Callum ruined him! Rocky doesn't seem that bothered though does he? All hugs and kisses. Ref saved him from a sustained beating and he still gets paid, nice one.

Reckon he was shocked at Smiths power and the occasion probably got to him.

Impressive stuff from Smith. He'll be fighting Groves before too long and he'll beat him.

To be fair to Callum and Rocky, they haven't bad mouthed each other in the build up so wouldn't have expected anything else. I'm sure he's gutted but there's no point throwing a strop about getting blown out.

At least he made the weight

We still don't really know how hard Smith hits, safe to say Fielding hasn't the greatest chin but Rebrasse and Sjekloca are pretty iron chinned so hard to get a real gauge.

Nailed it wheels...Never thought he'd last the round after the first canvas trip..

I'm pleased for him.

I don't know Paul, there's being magnanimous in defeat and there's coming across as just happy to be there.

Fielding in the changing rooms 'Obviously, I'm gutted'. No mate, that's not obvious at all.

His interview was a bit cringeworthy

"Feel I could have carried on"

......ummm.......

Should have let him carry on...So we could get our money's worth..

Let's all go easy on Soldier.....

I agree with what'sbeen said Rocky did not seem to be gutted, its almost like its what he expected to happen

Comes in 7 pounds overweight for Adamu and then when he fights someone decent he doesn't fancy it....

With the economy improving he should be able to get a job on a building site no problem....

We've all got one of those in our locker somewhere Pedro. Some idiot on here predicted Ryan Rhodes would beat Alvarez once. Union has a books worth of bad Audley predictions to his name.

I'll raise you Biggs v Tyson.

you're in esteemed there company pedro... wear your 'I don't know sheet about boxing' badge with pride

really though, Biggs Tyson. Only a complete cnut could call that wrong

Just wondering if I can correct my opening post? I'm sure I typed that it would be a 1st round blow out. Not sure what happened there......

spencer... probably the same spell checker that said 'competitive fight' when i typed 'mismatch'

No way am I going easy on Soldier. He deserves all the LOLs and ROFLs and emojis he gets! Hopefully I can bully some literacy into him

Have a feeling he'lol be absent for a bit anyway.

he's probably feeling rocky today

may be a while before he's up to fielding any difficult questions on the matter

Just saw this fight now. Some of the comments look harsh on Fielding. I expected this to just be a total wash out from Fielding based on the comments but he dug in and he went out swinging and looking to carry on. Looks like he didnt have the chin to cope with Smith and he was caught cold pretty early but he did he best to make a fight of it and certainly didnt look like he was just in there for the money.

Seemed to take the defeat in his stride......Happy to be 7 pounds over weight for Adamu too..

He lacks a winner's mentality....Time waster.

Sounds like you know him well

I don't like sportsman who take defeat like a pinch of salt..

My guess is Smith would have been devastated..

He looks like a winner..

Frak hell it was a good job I gave this place a wide birth straight after the fight

Truss talking like he's an ex-world champ passing down his words of wisdom, when in fact he hasn't got a clue. Stick to yer squats and spotting the lads in the gym.

Now don't be like that...
