    "There's been worse stoppages than that."

    If he'd really given his all in those fights he'd have won them.

    I love it when journeymen score an upset, probably more than anyone else on here... but I hate whiny journeymen who make excuses or don't give their all.

    Sad thing during the fight it was the best Sprott has looked in a long time before he got caught with the shot, got up though tbf and shoulda been allowed to continue.

    Which fights are you on about, exactly? He could have put more of an effort in against Bydenko, Brewster and Ustinov but he would have been robbed by the judges there anyway (in fact he was against Ustinov)

    Yeah it doesn't mean it's not a bad stoppage. Saying stuff like that legitimises it.

    I think that the technical term for what the ref did when Sprott pushed him is actually 'doing a Klinsmann'. :D

    not that bad. storm in a tea cup. they all kissed and made up anyway - doesnt look like ref held any bad feeling and hopefully sprock can continue to fight and get a pasting as well as a pay cheque - whether in germany or anywhere else

    More than you'll ever make per year.
