    What are peoples thoughts on this? Talk about out of the blue!

    I think it's a complete masterstroke from Hearn by getting Canelo to fight on DAZN and Sky by dangling a 4th division title in front of him...what a genius.

    EDIT: Was this @Scissors thread earlier that he couldn't discuss? Fair play if it was.

    "Rocky might have just got Canelo at the right time. In his first fight at the weight, he might be carrying a bit of extra baggage round the mid rift, which Rocky could exploit. These scousers are TOUGH. There is no quit in them! Rocky will be in there until the end, and we know Canelo has stamina issues. I'm gonna put my neck on the line and go for a Rocky Fielding 11th round TKO"

    FFS it's already started. I used to like Nelson but the bought and paid shilling is becoming unbearable now.

    Lol this is smart matchmaking from GBP, find a glass chinned champion. Good pick, they won’t dare go near Young Christopher.

    US TV hasn’t been sorted yet according to Hearn.

    Where Fielding goes after this unless he produces an almighty upset is beyond me. The only thing he has going for him is his size.

    Terrific fight. Delighted for Rocky, hope he is getting well paid. He has a huge height advantage ad has more power so I give him a chance. Do i think he wins, no,but he certainly has a chance. Rocky was poor against Ryder though I had him winning. I think Canelo will get in close and cause much more problems.

    Hope the winner fights Callum Smith for full title. Callum revenged one of his brothers defeats, would fancy doing it again, as I have no doubt he would beat Canelo at 168ibs.
