Barry Hearn / Matchroom Sport gave us another great Prizefighter tournament last night – this time it was the Super-Middleweights II at Liverpools’ Characterful Olympia.
It was the turn of Rocky Fielding to raise the Prizefighter Trophy and collect the £32,000 prize money. Fielding – who only turned pro last September – was drafted in just a week ago to take the place of Tony Quigley.
Scoring a second round TKO over Patrick Maxwell of Sheffield in the quarter-final, Fielding then faced fellow Liverpudlian – Joe Ainscough in the Semi’s who was stopped in the first round with a cut.
The atmosphere inside the Olympia was fantastic! The sounds of the ‘Rocky’ Theme rang out around the venue as were the chants of ‘Rocky, Rocky!’
The final saw Fielding up against Tobias Webb of Swansea, Wales (nephew of former World Cruiserweight Champion – Enzo Maccarinelli). But Webb was forced to retire after suffering two knockdowns in the first round.
Fielding’s record now stands at 6 wins (3 by KO)
