What happened to Ryan Rhodes v Anthony Small?

[big paulie]

I havnt been keeping up with the British scene lately but i was really looking forward to thay one, i see Small is now scheduled to fight Matthew Hall in june, what happened?

Gutted that fight fell through, in an interview Rhodes said he had a chest infection two weeks before the fight so pulled out. He has been nominated for the EU title (title just below European belt - which Jamie Moore has at the moment) to fight a guy rated 5 with IBF and 8 (i think with WBO) so he will fight him and try to get a shot at the vacant IBF title.

He decided he didnt have much to gain and alot to lose at his age fighting Small

Such a shame as i think it would have been a great domestic fight.

Ryan Rhodes is British level at best.

Talking world scene is just ridiculous.

To be fair I am quoting what Rhodes himself said. I think Rhohes has a chance, the light middleweight division is wide open at the moment, he has an awkward style, decent power so why not?

Jamie Moore in my opinion is the better fighter though

Na, trust me, He isn't world level, he's not even European level, Moore would batter him.

There's nothing wrong with being a good british level fighter, he can earn some decent money doing it.

Rhodes didn't want any of Small, just like Small said.

Rhodes shat himself and took on a Tomato can last night instead of Small.

Now he thinks he can move onto a World title !

Looks like he ducked Small to go ahead with getting a World title shot.
I've lost respect for him, that guy he fought last night had lost 23 fights, what an embarrassment for a supposedly good fighter like Rhodes to fight such weak competition.

Joker.

I like Rhodes but his fight last night was boring to me.

[mickey malone]

Rhodes rarely fights live opponents.. When he does, he loses... Hence the reason for ducking Small..

[RenegadeT]

the Rhodes fight from last night was embarrassing .

He seemed to want to take praise from beating a guy who gets continually knocked out through his whole pro career .

Waste of time

get to f.uck ryan , you are ****e man
