Schofield vs. Ellison

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

Schofield vs. Ellison
Mickey Ellison, DEC
How the heck is Schofield the favorite?? He doesn't have one good win to his name plus Ellison has beaten him before.

Schofield vs. Ellison
Mickey Ellison, DEC
Mickey Ellison won their first fight and I don't think it's gonna be any different this time as, despite having a worse record, he has been facing a higher level of competition than Charlie Schofield.

Whitaker vs. Healey
Danny Whitaker, DEC
This is a very close fight and Chris Healey could steal this one if he brings his A-game. Still picking Danny Whitaker as he SHOULD get the win but you never know when Chris Healey is standing in the other corner.

Hayden vs. Quinn
Aaron Hayden, DEC
The legendary journeyman Jamie Quinn, who almost never gets KO'd, is making his long awaited return to the ring after a 1 week absence and I for one can't wait!

Fewkes vs. Grannum
John Fewkes, DEC
Jordan Grannum is another journeyman I have a ton of respect for as he's lost 73 fights but has only been KO'd once!

Harker vs. Fidoe
John Patrick Harker, DEC
Brett Fidoe is another tough journeyman with 65 losses but has only been stopped twice!

Schofield vs. Ellison
Mickey Ellison, DEC
To be fair Ellison got absolutely smashed in his last fight!! But, yeah he's already beat Schofield and I don't see much changing

Schofield vs. Ellison II
Mickey Ellison, DEC
Schofield is a can crusher, Ellison has won some legit matchups

Martin-Stuart vs. Hall
Charlie Martin-Stuart, DEC
Hall looks confused even in his tapology photo

Skeete vs. Arrowsmith
Bradley Skeete, TKO, R1
AHH SKEETE SKEETE MO****AAA, AHH SKEETE SKEETE GOD DAMN

Let's just focus on the efforts of what we refer to in the trade as a good, tough, durable, hard working, tireless British Journeyman Pro Boxer, who we should all appreciate and admire for their experience, survival skills, knowhow, grit, determination, tough as nails character, blood, sweat and tears approach, with a never say quit attitude... On Friday Night's Bill in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, in the Car Park of Sheffield Arena, on a Dennis Hobson promoted Boxing show, the fight card comprises of 9 Pro Boxing Fights in Total... Five Boxers are making their Pro Boxing debut on the card, which is good to see... Six Boxers who we will refer to as the perennial underdog, are taking part on the show to give debutant, prospects, returnee fighters from long absences etc, all they can handle, as they each give a fight there very best and leave it all in the Ring... Namely, MJ Hall, Dale Arrowsmith, Jordan Grannum, Ryan Hibbert, Jamie Quinn and Brett Fidoe have a combined Pro Boxing Record of 30 Wins (Fidoe has 13 to be fair), 354 losses and 12 draws... They are all expected to lose before the first bell is called prior to each bout, but they will all come to try and Win... Question is, can an upset, or even a Draw be achieved on the night by any of the fabulous 6...In Boxing, stranger things have happened... I don't expect to see it, but I have been surprised on many occasions by the wonderful sport... In the Heavyweight Central Area Title Fight, I am predicting that experience will prevail, especially when going towards 10 Rounds and I think Chris Healey will ultimately outwork Danny Whittaker over the distance to Win via a Points decision, but it could well be a Super close contest, especially if Whittaker is at his best, but I am taking Healey to come away with the W 💯🤔🧐🤑🥊👊👌👍

In the Main Event, although they have fought before and Ellison beat Schofield on Points over 10 Rounds in an English Title Eliminator Bout in 2019, by 1 Point, I am predicting a closely fought Revenge victory for Charlie Schofield this evening who will have his hand raised after 10 hard rounds of action... 🤔🧐🤑🥊👊👍💯

Schofield vs. Ellison II
Mickey Ellison, DEC
They have already fought and Ellison got the win. Think i'm gunna pick him to win the rematch.

Hayden vs. Quinn
Aaron Hayden, DEC
Jamie Quinn fights every week! lol

Schofield vs. Ellison II
I predict Charlie Schofield at -139. He has a sophisticated lumberjack sweep. Schofield might highlight the crowd noise.

I called it a little earlier in the thread, Brett Fidoe we all  salute you... Another Win on his Pro Record and just as importantly, another Win for a large Underdog against a young favoured prospect, who was making his Pro Boxing debut, in what appeared to be a closely fought contest, with Fidoe prevailing after 4 x 3 Minute completed Rounds, winning by a Points score of 39 - 38... Brett fought his heart out and ultimately this type of result keeps all young prospects on their toes, as they must understand, they are not granted a Win, they have to earn it and earn it against tough, experienced competition, who don't like to lose.. 
Applause also goes to Charlie Schofield, who thoroughly outboxed his opponent, tough as nails, durable, pressure fighter, Mickey Ellison over 10 completed Rounds to gain Revenge over their previous fight result and secure the English Super Middleweight Championship, in an excellent and commanding Boxing performance on the night 👏👏🤔💯👍🧐🤑🥊👊👌
