    Yes, I think Fields could have taken a few more punches. Maybe the ref took into account that Fields had already taken some big punches in his previous fight vs. Sprott.

    I thought Perez looked good, cleared out Prizefighter which is a nice way to get some publicity out there.

    How much does he weigh? I think boxrec has him at 6'0, could he cut to cruiserweight?

    Also, he wears the Irish flag, but he is from Cuba. Did he immigrate to Ireland or something, or does he just train there.

    would love to see Perez v. Arreola, Perez v. Boytsov, Perez v. Chisora

    He is the best current pro heavyweight from his country, IMO.

    I'd favor him over the others.

    Given the body fat % on Ortiz, Gomez & especially Solis - I'd say Perez could chow down on some ropo vieja all through training camp and still lead the pack in fitness. :yep

    He looked good in PrizeFighter. Entertaining, aggressive style.

    Will be watching his fights now on.

    He has been criticised in the past for being overweight and not training so I doubt we'll see him cut anymore weight and drop to cruiser. Also, he's not going to get as much exposure at crusier.

    Yeah, he emigrated from Cuba to Ireland about 3 or 4 years ago and has a daughter in Cork

    He undoubtedly has bags of potential but apparently isn't dedicated so he'll probably not go on to achieve big things.
