Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
........by 6lbs ahead of his Commonwealth scrap with Adamu????
Is this true? Seems a massive amount to miss it by. I've only just heard this in passing BTW.

Heard it was nearly 7lbs mate he looked
Like no fat on him as well sounds crazy wondering how true it is

Sounds like his scales are knackered at home by the sounds of it.
He must be mortified.

Too much weight training and high protein diet built too much lean muscle
Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
IFL haven't posted any footage of the weigh in for Fielding or any interviews with him...
Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
No, the weigh in is there. 12 stone 6 he comes in as.expe wrote:IFL haven't posted any footage of the weigh in for Fielding or any interviews with him...

It's like the Joe Gallagher interview. He said some controversial stuff in it and it immediately gets taken down. Seems like IFL are almost acting as the media wing of matchroom even though they're supposed to be neutral.expe wrote:It's not on the iFL TV Youtube, have you got a link to it?garethhop wrote:No, the weigh in is there. 12 stone 6 he comes in as.expe wrote:IFL haven't posted any footage of the weigh in for Fielding or any interviews with him...
Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
That goes beyond taking the piss - are weights stipulated in contracts ?
According to the video Adamu weighed 11 stone 12 and Feilding 12 stone 6 and 11 ounces.
So, there is a 9 pound weight advantage today - Fielding didn't look to be holding weight so what will be the weight difference come fight time ? got to be over a stone ?
What would happen if Adamu had weighed in at 13 stone - he would probably have been sent home without a penny and a load of travel and hotel bills to pay.

Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
That can't of just been an issue with the scales either. A pound here or there you could put down to that but not that much.bripez wrote:That goes beyond taking the piss - are weights stipulated in contracts ?

Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
It would be unlikely that Adamu's scales at home were coming in half a stone too light !columbo wrote:That can't of just been an issue with the scales either.

Joking apart, this is very dangerous. Feilding could easily weigh a stone or more than his opponent tomorrow night.

Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
I assume Fielding has been stripped and its only on the line for Adamu or..........?
Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
So will he be stripped of the belt ??
Wonder if he really struggles to make weight in the past. Looks like a move to light heavy then and no Paul Smith fight :-(.
Thing is I bet Matchroom were keen for Rocky and Callum Smith not to cross paths which could have happened soon.

Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
New video of weigh in
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syqUvTXSgNk
Think its Adamu 11st 12lbs
Rocky was 12st 6lbs
Eddie didn't look best pleased.

Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
He was just saying how Murray didnt deserve a shot at Crolla and that Crolla should be getting a world title fight in his next fight, etc. Nothing major. Anyway, the next thing you know, the vid has been taken down.Tarkus wrote:What did he say?columbo wrote: It's like the Joe Gallagher interview.

Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
It was on the IFL channel all along, while you were trying to make out that they wouldn't put something up that put one of Matchrooms' fighters in a negative light.
Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
It wasn't on there at the time I looked, the original link came from the Matchroom Boxing channel, the video on iFL was only put up a couple of hours ago, wasn't there earlier.jameswilson wrote:It was on the IFL channel all along, while you were trying to make out that they wouldn't put something up that put one of Matchrooms' fighters in a negative light.
Re: Rocky Fielding fails to make the weight......
I am asking because after listening to Murray I still could not gauge what the beef is about. Would like to hear the other sides.columbo wrote: He was just saying how Murray didnt deserve a shot at Crolla and that Crolla should be getting a world title fight in his next fight, etc. Nothing major.
