HOW MUCH OF A CHANCE DO YOU GIVE ROCKY FIELDING AGAINST CANELO THIS WEEKEND?

Wayne Alexander

Ex-british and EBU champ

If I’m being realistic, Fielding’s chances are slim. The simple facts are that Canelo Alvarez is an elite world champion and a future Hall of Famer, while Rocky Fielding is just a decent domestic-level champion. But who wouldn’t take this opportunity? I wish Rocky all the best.

Super-flyweight prospect

I’m really struggling to see a way Fielding beats Canelo. He’s just too strong and has been fighting worldclass opposition for much longer. Canelo by KO mid rounds for me.

There is always a chance. Fielding is the huge outsider, understandably. He must start fast and hope to catch Alvarez early to test the Mexican’s chin at the higher weight. The longer the fight goes on, though, hope of an upset will dwindle as Alvarez will take control and will be landing regularly.

Isaac Lowe

Featherweight contender

He’s the naturally bigger man. He has a puncher’s chance and one punch can change everything. He has to stick to the game plan, listen to Jamie Moore, and give it everything he’s got. He’s fighting one of the world’s best, but you have to take these sorts of chances.
