    Comments Thread For: Rocky Fielding Open To James DeGale Showdown

    Rocky Fielding has expressed a desire to fight James DeGale next -- but insists they're at the early stages in terms of the fight being made. Six weeks ago, James DeGale dumped his IBF super-middleweight title to avoid a high risk-low reward mandatory defence against Venezuelan Jose Uzcategui and instead chase domestic rivals and the kind of fights that would, financially, help usher the 2008 Olympic gold medallist towards a fruitful and early-ish retirement.

    Imagine De Gale vacated the IBF title to chase the super fights, only to fight Fielding for the WBA regular..... wait

      Lets face it Rocky, Eddie Hearns knows that beating euro-bum Tyron Zeuge for a fugazi WBA title is your ceiling.You know I cant help but laugh at ****** Callum Smith, you look at this bum Rocky Fielding become a 'regular' WBA world-champion after Callum sparked him in the first round and cant help but laugh at Smiths joke campaign at a world title ; The turtle beat the hare!

        These domestic fights do well, especially at SMW. If there was ever a chance for Feilding to beat DeGale it comes now as DeGale is winding down on his career. It's obviously a big opportunity for him.

          The 'cashing out' mentality isn't a good sign for either DeGale or Rocky. The Groves and Smith final is the real championship fight and the people know that.

            DeGale could possibly lose to Fielding at this stage

              Nearly 2 months since DeGale ditched his belt and no fight in sight. Is anyone still denying that that was a blatant duck?

                So he's won an alphabet strap and he's going to cash in on all that glory. Oh ffs. Does he really believe that being the WBA regular champ means anything? I regard it as a minor belt now.

                    Think they both need the fight really. Public dont really give a **** about Degale, Fielding needs a legit win before going on to the Groves/Smith winner.
