Spencer fearon is claiming on his face book page Rhodes has pulled out of the Small fight. Gutted :(

its on anthony smalls facebook page aswell, apparently rodes has got a cold gutted was a great match up

looks like it has, this shows falling apart, 1st magee now rhodes

Damn it was gonna go to this one.

Wow it's like a SN bill.

I suppose we sympathise with Hayemaker as they are so new to this but when was the last time a decent looking bill in this country stayed the same from announcement to fight night?

just glad I hadn't booked me hotel an ticket yet

yeah fight is def off, smallsy just called me, he is gutted!!

shit, that is crap news, i hope they can get a new date lined up soon, there are some crap viral colds going round at moment, knock you for 6 for a couple of weeks, i can only presume ryan has got one of these.

I hope it's legit and Small's gob has not got to Rhodes. Was looking forward to him shutting him up.

So is that Rhodes and Magee out ?

If this was Warren many on here would be claiming its a con...sadly its just boxing

Looks it. 26 is usually pretty good at shooting any unfounded rumours down. Damn shame. He looked in good shape last week.

true was chatting to him and didnt seem any7 worries over small like so i think it must be legit

I did say earlier that Smallsy called me and told me it was off!!!

As already stated - Ryan has definitely pulled out - the lad is gutted - as I think most people are - as it would have been fantastic fight in my opinion.

I was told "Flu" is the reason, Ryan has not been able to train for a good few days - so not only was there the issue of fitness, but in that comes weight etc etc due to non training.

Due to things being totally genuine - I am positive Robert Smith at the BBBofC will look at things sympathetically and if Hayemaker get in there quick to rearrange another date in the near future the fight could still be on - unless of course a certain promotional firm want to continue to play silly games.

Do you think Hayemaker have the time to put another fight on the card?

Of course they do - but will it be financially viable to do so?

I'm meant to be doing the press for BBN on this.....I'm absolutely gutted...moving house that day and all

There's nothing more I can add to what has already been said.
Bad feeling or not, Small created a stern challenge for Ryan, and his prep has been seriously hampered by his illness.
He has to be 100% right.
David has done the right thing, by exercising his authority over Ryan as his Co Manager and Promotor.
Fighters are often the last to admit when there's a problem - and Ryan is no different.
He's gutted, as much as his followers are.

Talking about video footage in the showers and men pulling out, is there something you would like to share with us?

Don't be disappointed when you open the 'Magee stripped' thread

Hayemaker Promotions will most likely reschedule the Rhodes v Small fight to another date. I'm pretty confident of that .......

This show will go ahead though.

Let's hope this decision was nothing to do with the poor ticket sales.

Sorry don't get your point.
Ticket sales don't affect a fighter's health.

glad i didnt get tikets then
