Comments Thread For: Rocky Fielding To Get Tough Test in Bryan Vera

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Rocky Fielding will face Brian Vera in a huge Super Middleweight clash in the summer.

The popular Liverpool man faces the Texan on a date and an venue to be confirmed next week, as Fielding looks for a big win on his CV to serve notice of his intentions at world level.

Fielding returned to action in March in Hull after damaging his hand in his destructive dismissal of former World title challenger Noe Gonzalez Alcoba in July in Liverpool, and the 27 year old will take a big step-up in class when he meets the 33 year old.

And there's me getting all excited about the BBBofC ordering Fielding VS Callum Smith for the vacant British title.

Good match. Will tell us where Fielding is now at. Even when he was the first to take a Prizefighter tournament by winning all his bouts by KO he didn't look much to me. Upright, slow, rigid, mechanical. Didn't even see him as a decent prospect back then, and Rocky never is going to be Mr Smooth, but there's no denying he IS much improved. Still needs much more if he's to compete at high level but he has already become a better fighter than I thought he had it in him to be. It will be another step up if he can beat Vera and further progress from there might yet see Fielding develop to the point where an Anfield Stadium fight for a serious purse against that serious talent, Callum Smith, is viable.

I think Vera stops Fielding. Rocky looked like **** in his last fight, granted he was coming off a lay-off.
