[youtube=425,350]PtRrAyPawxY[/youtube]

For those that have yet to see it ;D

Amir Khans stunning KO
[youtube=425,350]QX6CCTRokKE[/youtube]

i don't want to know who won just yet

is there a way of watching it whilst avoiding the result at the same time ??

;)

Good work Smash ;)

Mark go and watch Porkies on VHS ;D

That was a great punch from Khan but it was embarrassing, although right, how the commentary team kept mentioning Medjadji was a superfeatherweight.

Glad the crowd booed afterwards.

a thing that pissed me off was Frank Warren saying the winner of Skelton-Sprott gets a world title shot. Will this acctually happen? its an on going promise and i really cant see it happening to be honest.

Such is the state of the Heavies that i reckon he may pull it out of the bag ;)
I think Skelton could have a real chance depending on who he fought.

I would like to see skelton in particlar get a world title shot...

I dont mind admitting to following skelton..Not because he's a good boxer or anything like that..Hes only got as far as he has cos he is just a hard bastard..
I'd really like to see him tested by a belt holder.. I think he's on the level of the rahman's and maskaevs if im honest..Fighters that arent quite top level..But because of the state of the division are ranked highly..
I think skelton could have some interesting and entertaining fights with the likes of rahman, maskaev etc..
Peace

I gave Skelton no chance of beating anyone in world class but after seeing Briggs and Maskaevs latest fights - on the night, Skelton would of beat both of them.

Sprott-Skelton was close last time before the 12th round stoppage. Sprott will probably beat him this time to continue the British heavyweight merry-go-round

Thanks for the footage, Smash Up...loving both clips!! ;D :coolclick:

Damn am I the only one who feels bad for the bad luck of a career Audley Harrison has had :-\ That was like the punch Tarver landed against Jones jr in their second fight

I have my doubts as well. The trouble is our heavies are so inconsistent that we can't even determine who our best fighter is to get the shot.

It wouldn't suprise me at all that Skelton beats Sprott only for Warren to say he now must face Danny Williams again who beats Scott Gammer. Skelton then loses to Williams but Harrison KO's Gammer so Williams and Audley fight a rubber match.

Meanwhile Skelton Ko's Gammer and Sprott whilst Williams Harrison ends in a draw, so we have another round where Harrison finally faces Skelton and Williams rematches Sprott.

Now Sprott beats Williams and Skelton KO's Audley. Williams and Skelton meet in the final final final eliminator. Skelton wins but is injured in training and misses his title shot which now goes to the winner of Sprott vs Gammer as Williams has now retired. Gammer wins but because he's now 1 and 1 with Sprott Warren orders a rubber match which ends in a win for Sprott.

By this time Skelton is fit again and Warren says that its only fair he gets to fight Sprott to decide who will fight for a world title.

Skelton wins only to find that the division has now been unified by Wladimir.

Furthermore Skelton is now 47 and decides to retire, so Warren organises an eliminator between Gammer and Sprott.

However Roman Greenberg has just knocked out Harrison so Warren decides Greenberg must fight the winner of Sprott Gammer.....and you can probably guess what happens after that :-\

All of these British heavyweights are so awful though. Audley with his cowardice and awful touchy, touch jab. Skelton with his ugly lack of any discernable skills. And fat Danny Williams who barely throws a dozen punches per round.

I was just rewatching the Lewis: Bruno fight again yesterday for the first time in an age and it was remarkarbly wonderful viewing. Bruno had his weaknesses, but did what he did competently. If Bruno was here today in this day and age, he could do us quite proud. He had a decent jab, decent workrate and power. Lacking a chin and a bit of stamina, but most heavyweights are lacking something these days...

Maybe im just feeling nostalgic, after all Bruno was stopped in 6! :-\

Thanks, was wanting to get a peak at Khan. Good right. :o

Wasnt it the 7th ;)

Agree with you though, Bruno looks great compared to the useless journeymen we have around today.

Alot of people feel sorry for Audley it seems but he shouldnt have been so dismissive of his domestic rivals. Getting sparked by Michael Sprott is a big setback and its not as if he had time to mess around. If anything , he'll be more gunshy than he already is and I cant see that selling tickets . Sprrot said he isnt interested in rematches but then went on to say he wants a rematch with Skelton. For teh sake of British boxing I hope Matt blows him away cuz if Sprott beats him it just shows that all our heavies are as bad as each other

The 7th was it? You are probably right. It was a really interesting fight considering it was a battle of jabs. Bruno did alright considering what Lewis would go on to become.

Audley truly, truly sucks. Who is he going to fight in any rematch. He is 35 and just been sparked out by a journeyman. I truly think this will be a wake up call. We wont be seeing much more of Audley. He has money in the bank and wont want to be sparked again.

It was defo the 7th. I've seen it afew times cuz I love the finish . Lewis wasnt that great working with Pepe but he was still good enough to beat Bruno

The problem Audley faces now is that whos guna pay to see him fight . People boo him in and out the arena and now weve seen him sparked ( what everyone wanted to see form teh start ) he has no appeal . Like Naseem when he lost finally . Whos he guna rebuild against ? Its guna be a tough road back.

to be realistic, there is no road back. Audley is all washed up

awesome fights.....Audley looks like he has some skills...just no heart, conditioning or chin....could be a good benchmark fighter though.....Khan, well didn't get to see much...looks like he packs quite a punch.....

Thanks for the fights mate,! O0

Todays American Heavyweights are the same. Just fucking pathetic. no quality about the lot.. Hell the skill level is shit. And the conditioning road work is pathetic. . Hell at least this match here Harrison -vs.- Sprott was a go. both guys working hard and letting their hands go, a rare thing these days.. And something to be proud of. Harrison got knockout fighting., there is nothing to be ashamed of in that .. one of his best performances until he got knocked out. Harrison came to fight .

Yes ! Frank Bruno was always in good condition and did his work in the gym 6"4 225. that’s true boxing conditioning mate ! that’s how its should be ! it’s a shame more of the younger Heavyweights don’t take this sport serious enough to get in proper boxing condition. :coolclick: in 24
