Comments Thread For: Andy Lee Replaces Martin Murray, Fielding-Blackledge Set

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Eddie Hearn of Matchroom has confirmed that Liverpool's Rocky Fielding will defend his Commonwealth Super middleweight title against Luke Blackledge at Manchester's Phones 4U Arena on Saturday night. The bout takes place on the undercard of Carl Froch versus George Groves and will be a welcome boost for Blackledge, who was pencilled in to meet Paul Smith for the British belt on December 7th and now gets his first major title crack a couple of weeks early.

Sweet good to see Andy staying busy

I didn't even realise that Murray has withdrawn. That's him and Anthony Joshua.

Now Andy Lee's on the card which I'm not sure is a good thing or a bad thing.

That's a pretty good prospect vs prospect fight, especially at such short notice.

isnt it going to be against a bum? i guess its fair since he already should be the champ after beating martinez. he figures why am i putting myself in the position to be a b-side? you can't win that way. he's gonna get a title and hole up in the uk for years. he will probably fight lee and macklin. golovking....nope!

Fielding-Blackledge is an intriguing fight.
