If he wasn't a mediocre featherfisted bum then he would have fought Jacobs, Golovkin, Saundersx2 and Langford when he had the chance. Instead he's fighting in leisure centres vs the Quinlans of this world. AA is at least 5 years past his best lol.
I have always thought Jr ducked Jacobs and I think they did so because the fight was too high risk and low reward at the time. Jacobs is a big name now and the reward is much bigger beating him, so even though the risk is still there the fight is much more likely now. GGG fight was just a calulated risk by Eddie that blew up in everybodies face, all 3 fighters involved had their stock lowered because Hearn wanted to give Brook a pay day. GGG and Jr have bounced back a little but tragically Brooks career has/was ended. BJS and Langford is just a mess really, Jr has to take a lot of blame for pulling out but Frank Warren isn't a saint and his devious tactic's made the fights harder to make. Langford for example is not a feared fighter by any means and injury or no injury Jr should have pummeled him. I doubt the injury was enough to pull out, but medically it was apparently. Frank tried to put Jr in his place by making the fight an undercard to the little known Liam Williams fighting a bum lol, how bloody ridiculous!!! He also put Nathaniel Wilson, a long lost family secret that would have caused tention in the changing rooms. Not to mention all of the other dodgy promotion of the fights and the appaling commentry in the BJS 1 fight which was the most one eyed I have ever seen.
Because AA is seriously past it, I wouldn't say shot but he is definitely old and worn. If Paul Smith can take him 24 rounds then that should answer your question, AA isn't good now. Eubank does have a solid chin and home advantage so that's why he is a 1/6 fav.
I never rated Fielding that highly but I really liked the aggression in his performance against Vera and thought if he built on that he could maybe go places. But after losing the shoot out against Smith he's looked average against Rebrasse and poor v blown up middle Ryder. Cox looked crap at Bramall Lane but hopefully this fight will bring the best out of them.
Seriously mate how much can u defend this guy u make him out be this god like fighter in mw and smw division he bigs himself up saying he do this and that. Yet how many fights he pulled out off how many excuse I use aw frank used tactic hahahaha u say risk for reward. Lol if he so good so confident against Jacobs wher is the risk ??? If he wins he big America and ppl can't duck him. Fact is he is the **** e bag. He ran scared Jacobs golovkin and bjs he slates jell Brook quit against spence. He had a minor injury pulled out against Langford hahaha he's a bum a fraud a cherry picker he now fighting Abraham 5 years late soon he call out frock or Kessler or whatever. Why no go Jacobs now etc cause he most over rated punk around he doesn't deserve f all he get by his dad names. No promoter wants anyhin do him because they are delusional idiots scars fight anyone decent. Am starting think James 5000 is jr or his mate. It's ridiculous love u have a guy who's a w anker and fights nobody's for his cereal box world belt. In Britain guys taht promote boxing positive. Guys like him ruin it with aw talk no backup Slight rant ther. Hate fact this guy biggest fraud Britain. Soon he steps up he be slapped silly. Won't happen since he's about 6 years by prime and wrong weight but hope aa catches him.
I reckon Eddie is now realisng that signing Cox wasnt as good as he first imagined. Theres certainly more hype round cox than substance and i reckon hes ready to weigh him or Rocky in
Agree with you. I liked Rocky's last performance. Great feet movement and his defence has improved. Looking forward to the fight. Edging towards Rocky on this one by UD
i think Hearn is in a dilemma both seem below world class but he isn't going to support both of them. THis is for hearn to understand WHO is the best level down from callum smith who he keeps hold of and build as a title challenger and make some money for a fight with callum smith (if he wins a belt it be his first defence). Expect the loser to slowly get transferred to bottom of the card shows and slowly off-loaded.
The loser of this fight is really at a crossroads, because losing a british title fight limits your future in the sport, especially for Rocky after that callum smith fight, he can't really afford to lose this.
If this fight was made a year a go people wouldn't be giving Fielding any chance at all. It's only after a couple of lacklustre performances from Cox that people have started saying he's ****. People were tipping him to be the next big killer in the SMW division when he was with Frank. I never thought the hype was justified people were just getting far too carried away with him knocking out bums.
You will see why on the night. Eubank destroys, I repeat destroys, Arthur Abraham.... And you know it. *edit* I looked at your name and thought u were a Eubank post and then I re-read the post. My bad. Yes sir, you are correct.
