Hmmmm Seldon VS Brewster is at least a little intriging given Brewster has been inactive and Seldon whilst past it has been active at least and can punch. I still think Brewster has more in the tank and will stop Seldon but could be a good scrap
It's amazing how Seldon's dropped so much damned weight... He's at his absolute prime weight from a decade ago. It's funny how much **** he catches for laying down against Tyson, yet he's redeemed himself a dozen times over. Unlike Golota, who's been given several chances after several stupid mistakes as opposed to Seldon's one
The difference here is chin quality. Seldon's jaw is glass, Brewster can still take a decent punch. He will knock Seldon out somwhere before the 5th or 6th round.
I don't think Brewster starts that fast these days. He's not exactly much of a mover and, if only for 2-3 rounds it seems, Seldon can still stick 'n' move. It will end with a Brewster knockout though, I'd be shocked at any other outcome. And yes, kudos to Seldon for getting into so much better shape over the last couple years. He was horribly overweight when he was losing to the likes of Tye Fields and Gerald Nobles.
