    I think Small has a good chance, dont underestimate him, Rhodes probably has a little too much experience at this stage, but I would not discount Small.

    I agree and I'll be on it. I think Rhodes will stop him late on.

    Smalls speed and workrate will be too much for a lacklustre Rhodes.

    Yeah, I think at the very least Small will put up a decent fight.

    I agree I think Small is dismissed a little on here. He has a real chance, he's quick and awkward. Still going with Rhodes though but think it'll be closer than a lot on here seem to think.

    My way of looking at it is that Small has no win on his record anywhere near Rhodes quality.

    True but I still feel he could cause Rhodes problems, but I think Rhodes quality/experiance will pull him through and he'll either get a late stoppage or run away with it to a wide points decision.

    I just look at Small's record and see only one decent opponent.

    He lost that by stoppage.

    Granted, styles make fights..... but there is too much of a gap.
