if the fight was made today, who wins?

I'd favor Fielding.

Yea, think i'd favour Fielding aswell after the Zeuge/Smith performance.
Hopefully the fight can get made, the Sauerlands love bringing scousers over to face their SMW Champs in Germany...

Although Zeuge is not great I believe he is definitely a level above fielding

I'd go with zeuge

Fielding really is quite poor. Smashing out brophy who isn't even British standard doesn't really prove much. Fieldings pissibky good enough to win a euro belt providing he doesn't meet a prospect for world level in that fight. If he meets a career euro level fighter, it's about his level.

Zeuges nothing special but looks a bit more polished in his work.

I'd actually like to see fielding vs Paul smith as it's got some needle. We'd also get a like for like opponent in paul smith for these 2 guys

fielding bashes him up

fielding underrated and zeauge is pretty crap

Fielding has heavy hands but thats about it. His glaring technical shortcoming wont let him succeed against European level opposition. Zeuge is euro level.

zeague struggled bad with some randomn nigerian not long ago. dont be surprised if fielding wacks him silly. pretty sure that paul smith hurt zeauge multiple times too. fielding can do better than that.

Zeuge isn't great but he at least has a jab. And better hand speed and work rate

I don't remember paul smith hurting zeuge. I couldn't be wrong.

Fielding has ok power, but anyone at a decent level of boxing should take it tbh

How can Fielding do better then Paul when Paul is better then him?

Yeah I think I'd pick Zeuge. Whilst I'm not a fan of Paul Smiths I think he'd stand a very good chance of beating Fielding, let alone Zeuge.

Surely Smith is pretty much finished now? Saw pictures of him at the awards the other night and he looks massive.

fielding would beat Smith easy now. people on this forum even thought brophy-fielding was a real 50/50.

fielding much more of a threat to zeague. remember zeague didnt beat that italian in the first fight. hes not levels above fielding at all.

He's in a bulking stage. By January he will have cutted and will be at 8% body fat ...

I didn't.

paul smith blows. beating dodson and quigley a century ago means nothing. people still underrating fielding if theyd pick him to lose that. look past the loss to callum and his resume is very solid around euro/brit level. he can clearly put his shots together and hurt people and brings a lot of size for the division.

zeauge is ultra vulnerable which is why theyve matched him with smith and that nigerian who still gave him hell despite being cherrypicked. fielding should jump at the chance if he gets it.

The thing with Fielding is that he can look emphatic fighting someone at his level. Because of his power he demolishes them. But against higher level he is hopeless. Zeuge is not very high level but I think he has enough to get a win. So does that Italian fellow by the way.

Probably Fielding but these two fighting for any sort of world strap is pretty hard to stomach.
