This guy wants Rahman next??:rofl Man i would like to see it, would be a good win for Rahman!(at least on paper) I want to see the big dumbass anti boxer on the canvas!!
Fields is probably the worst main event headliner I've seen in a long long time. He seems to really try but the tools just aren't there. Even the version of Rahman that showed up against Sykes would stop Fields brutaly. I hope someone hurries up and beats him because the more attention he gets the worst the already maligned heavyweight division looks.
does anyone here remember when he first started boxing ? he was going by "railroad " tye fields ? he looke more defined muscle wise back then compaired to now , i wasn't too impressed as big as he is he doen't have alot of ko power because most heavyweights would of got jenkins out of there quick .
Bingo. Fields throws nothing but arm punches, he leaves himself WIDE open for counter shots all the time, and has all the technique of a low-level clubfighter. As SOON as he faces anyone who is even halfway decent, he will be destroyed. This guy is just a super-sized McNeely, nothing more.:yep
I didn't watch it. I'd make the mistake of watching Fields several times previously. He can't help that he's no good, and I respect him for trying hard, but they need to stop with any sort of hype. The only fight he could have that would interest me at all would Valuev, just for the novelty of it. Maybe Peter, too, if Sam needs a spectacular KO for some reason.
I don't believe that I have seen him fight but I bet he's better than a lot of people think. I would like to see him in with Moorer or Mesi and if he wins fight a real top contender.
Once you see him "fight", you'll change your tune real quick. I know he had no amateur career, but by now he should have learned some kind of technique. He literally doesn't know how to throw a punch. The punchstats give him credit for throwing a lot of punches per round, but most of those punches are just Fields waving his arms forward and pawing. And for a guy that size, he has no power. He makes Valuev look like Sugar Ray Robinson in the skills and speed departments. His sheer size and good stamina are really his two main attributes. He comes across as a good guy, who really likes boxing, but he just isn't very good at it.
It's obvious Fields has quit juicing. He can't fight a lick but I like his attitude. He tries to win and he has terrific fitness for a huge man. One must admit though: Everybody waits for him to lose as he should with his awful boxing technique but he keeps winning. Maybe heart and desire are underated commodities these days. Let's see these up and comers actually show up to fight Fields and beat him before we completely write the big dude off.
i think eddie is really good but just not big enough im not talk size the guy is in his early 20's and he is putting on wieght to get to the heavywieghts!!!real waste of talent it will seem
