Martin Murray-Gabe Rosado/Fielding-Ryder - Sky Sports 22 April.

[Fenster]

Not sure what this fight means (apart from boosting the winner towards another title shot) but Hearn, going way over the top (or maybe not), called it a possible best fight ever. Now Rosado is a Gatti-ish fighter, however, he's not as good, doesn't possess an equalizer and never wins a big fight.

Murray has never been a tear-up merchant, he's a hard-as-nails, fundamentally solid fighter that knows how to look after himself. Unfortunately he doesn't possess any fireworks, so like Rosado loses all the big, big ones (unlucky against Serg/Felix). Murray is back down to middle after feeling a million times stronger at supermiddle... until Groves duffed him up.

Anyway - good matchup that will be full of claret, busted boats and ooohhs and ahhhs.

Good undercard fight too for the British title. Ryder was impressive - for this level - against Etches, winning easily (unless you was listening to Richie Woodhall, who must have been half-cut).

Rosado is a tough kid and will fight anyone. This could be quite exciting if both guys go at it.

12 round decision for Murray

its an interesting fight anyway, i'm looking forward to it

Murray will be stronger at the weight but will he be better? GGG gave him a beating as did Groves. Murray is hard as nails but can he get back to world class and all roads lead to GGG.

There are still a few domestic and fringe level fights I'd like to see Murray involved in.

Murray - PTS
Ryder - Win (3/1 Pts)

Roughly 4/1 double

They keep selling this fight as Gatti-Ward so they're gonna get loads of stick when it's anything but. Murray's not the type of fighter to batter someone into submission even if he's got them beat, and Rosado isn't a puncher, so as long as Murray isn't affected by coming back down in weight should get a safe PTS win being the "home" fighter for once (Rosado is way overrated to me - cool guy though).

It's gonna be a nightmare for Ryder to get past Fielding's height and reach - plus Fielding has a decent dig - but Ryder is neat a southpaw that's held his own against some top fighters and pulled off a couple of upsets. 3/1 PTS.

Ryder fielding is interesting

in my mind fielding is a good few inches bigger than Ryder

I might be wrong tho, the closer they are in size the more chance ryder has of winning, ill have to see them next to each other before I make my mind up

[Fenster]

Ryder looks like a midget next to Fielding

[Alpha]

I'm still not sold on Fielding. Ideally he should win here but Ryder could surprise him.

Cordina pro debut 4 rounder on now

[Master]

Cordina will win this easy he looks ok

[Master]

Aguilar just taking a beating, he is game.

[Master]

Cordina beating the opponent but may survive to see the last round

[Master]

Just as I say that he is stopped
