Tootsie should put his hand up and use it as a loosener for his upcoming US debut with McKart. I'm sure Rocky would sharpen him up a bit. :yep
Rocky is pencilled in to fight Kiwi , Daniel Roy Maxwell 0-4-0 in Orange on Saturday night. Jeremy Allen who was to fight Jerkic recently fought Maxwell last weekend in WA and came up with a win on points over 4 rounds. Looks like a training run for Rocky. Hopefully they'll come up with some stiffer opposition next time around.
He is a hard boy to match. Better to get some work and stay sharp. Then not fight at all. I would like to see him matched with a Les Piper or Leroy Brown type opponent at this stage. Getting them to take the fight is a different story.
Yea i agree Crusher Getting the top fighters to fight Rocky id say they want more $$$$$ to fight him as well ,im looking forward to watching him on a fox show in the near future ...
is fighting Daniel Roy Maxwell , 6 rounds , tonight i think (2nd june) at the Orange Function Centre oh yeah and daniel's record is 4fights 4losses
he hasnt tested himself since he turned pro, wants to mimic his idol mundine which means padding his record up fighting C grade opponents, anyone can look good fighting blokes who have had a string of losses on their record. Call it what it is, record padding and missmatched bouts, it imo amounts to fraud, paying people think they are paying to watch an evenly matched bout when its far from the truth. The moment Jerick steps up he will be exposed like his idol Mundine, thats what these guys dont get, padding ur record up will only fck you in the end.
If it goes that way, I don't feel sorry paying punters. Boxing fans will know better and anyone else won't really care as long as theres booze and punches flying. Besides, a little early to make a padded record call.
Man the bloke has had 4 fights. You have not managed a fighter have you?? Dare say he is very hard to match. In saying that Dinesh Kanth was a good early yard stick he had tkoed the much more experienced Callan Orchad and dropped Micheal Bolling when they fought. The bloke he is fighting now is 0-4 but not been stopped should give Rocky some rounds. TC your no Bruce Trampled.
fenech won a world title after 7 pro fights...(15 ams i think) but then, he was good. he didnt have to get a blown up record, or dupe the public. he just went for it. admitedly, he got lucky in fighting a weak champ. but you make your own luck.

Bad example he fought shingaki who was 8-1-1 when an IBF title was equivalent to what the WBF title is now.
4 fights all against blokes with a string of losses, why do u girls get so excited about this when countless others are doing the exact same thing, rocky is doing nothing diffrent. His idol wont step up and neither will he. Dinesh Kanth is a **** who got lucky against Orchad and Boling.
