Big Tye Fields (40-1-1 ND, 36 KOs) of Las Vegas, Nev., is a strong 275-pounds and he once again proved that he has outstanding boxing skills. He fought a 10-round heavyweight fight at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino against Roderick Willis (14-3-1, 8 KOs) of Dallas, Texas, knocking him out in the first round.
Fields, 33, is ranked No. 5 by the NABF. He is a nine-year professional record, and he is a natural southpaw.
The club fights, promoted by Top Rank on Versus Network, are popular with the majority of the fight cards featuring Mexican fighters. But you can rest assured that Bob Arum’s fighter Tye Field’s is one who will be on every club card.
