And they say boxing fans are skeptics, if you can put a positive spin on this horror of a match, then you can tolerate just about anything.

At least one of them will be retired?

Good on sprott, he probably deserved some luck after toiling away in Europe and Britain
Harrison had really seemed to slow down, Sprott was winning that 3rd round anyway...it was a definitely hail mary shot, you're right, but it was also poor technique from Harrison to leave himself open like that. Reminded me a bit of some of Grant's KDs vs Guinn, more to do with his hands being absolutely nowhere and getting countered.

Yeah right...

March 2030 I forsee a double header: Audley/DannyXXIV: Two geezers at Ceasers (the nightclub in Streatham) and Sprott/SkeltonXX: Loser forfeit's his bus pass...

really? you can lose a round in boxing it aint that much of a upset.

and if you look at the replay you can see harrison is too quick but too slow to react. he saw the right hand started to counter then thwack lwft hok on the chin.

I am going to go against the grain and pick Sprott.

I have a feeling that Skelton will not be 100% on fight night/
