    I respect all fighters, regardless of their skill level. Because the bottom line is that it takes balls to climb through those ropes and fight in front of crowd, let alone to go to the gym that first time totally green and actually endure the months of training it takes to just get ready for a bout. With Tye Fields, he has been at it for ten or more years. He might not have the ability to be a world champion or even top 25, but the guy is out there trying. And another reason people should not blast Tye is the fact that he is known as a very good person outside the ring. He played college basketball, is articulate, and is a class guy, something boxing needs more of.

    You are right, it would not be fun, but interesting because rarely you´d see such big lumps fight. It might be ok if Fields can somehow bomb out McBride.

    He is fun to watch..
    Why not, a Giant who throw's bomb's Tuffman style.
    (I don't know about you guy's, but them Tuffman comp's of the 80's & 90's
    were fun to watch sometimes, I mean MMA is funny to watch aswell but something about them Butternbean's that is sorley missed in today's combat sport's.)

    I say it exactly like Oliver McCall said about his opponent only days before his bout with Frank Bruno.. (He has heart to box with the skills he has to actually fight fighters..) He isn't a natural, but has come a reletive long way.
