    He's looking great at the moment imo he stepped into another gear against Moore, Messi was a tough character but Rhodes threw solid sweet combos.

    Yes, he did look good there but no disrespect to Moore, he wasn't world class.

    Is Ryan aiming to fight a really big name? Is he well known in the USA?

    Surely the Hatton's could get Rhodes to fight the likes of Bundrage?

    I don't think he has a chance against Cotto, Angulo, Williams, Margarito. And Would probably never get those fights anyway.

    Hi guys ,

    My name is Paulo and i'm from Brazil . Being a fan of world boxing scene , obviusly i follow what happen in my country too .

    Honesly the professional boxing situation in Brazil is not good . This happen for a lot of reasons .

    But i'd like to say something about the Ryhan Rhodes opponent , Rocky Junior.

    Obviusly he is not a world class fighter as Rhodes but i saw somone of the Rocky's fight .

    He had good tequnique and , yes he is 39 years old but , his pysical condition are of a 29 years old fighter . And an incredible courage .

    well . I'd like just to say : Sure that he is not the best or most dangerous opponent in Rhodes career but i'm not sure at all that will be "a pointelss fight" as someone said.

    Sorry for my english .



    Thank you



    Paulo .

    When I Boxrec'd Juniors name the first thing that stands out is the Welson Olivera fight.. That doesn't look good at all.

    Hi


    I did not say that Rocky Junior is a champion . I just saying that he is not weak . But , maybe , everybody can have his idea of “weak” and “good” . Not all the people that posted in this Forum is agree about the Ryan Rhodes’s skills .

    Just opinions .

    I’d like to say another thing that I think is important . Every fighter had a history and not always we can say something about him just looking his record on the net .

    But this is an opinion too .

    Being a boxing fan , I hope that will be a good fight and I hope that for both fighter could be a good way to improve their skill…and their “personal story” .

    Being Brazilian I hope that Rocky Junior will do a good fight .



    About the Brazilian scene .

    Yes , probably at the moment we don’t have world class fighter . As I said in the other post for various reasons , that I think could be not interesting to analize in this post and that are surely “off topic” .

    But the Brazilian Boxing Federation (CBBoxe) is working very hard to improve our loved sport in the country . It’s no simple but they are working about it



    PS x marcelocrb : As i said i’m not a friend of Rocky Junior (I would have no problem to say it ) i just know him and , as I said , my name is not “pototo” (that is only my user name) but Paulo as I signed my post .

    Paulo .

    this gonna be shown on TV? Thought it might have popped up on eurosport like the Watson/Roberts/McIntosh bill the other week but on the hattons website it has a sky sports logo on the bottom. Its the same night as the Ricky Burns fight and obviously it wont be shown live but maybe highlights on ringside or something?
