First off, well done to FRAUDLEY HARRISON You won the gig on the night. However in my opinion, far and away the most exciting fighter of the night was Coleman Barrett!
I am more than willing to admit that I knew very little about him before BN landed on my doorstep this morning!
I read the preview for prizefighter, and then came across him in 'between rounds' in BN (for non-UK folks, BN= Boxing News, a quite brilliant wkly boxing mag! I advise taking-out a subscription!) between the rounds is the old format of 'we have 20 or so quick-fire questions'
He came across as a thoroughly nice family guy in his questions, so I had my fingers crossed for him tonight!
I need'nt have worried though, he was quite magnificent in his fights tonight!
Unfortunately, Harrisons weight for once worked in his favour! Barrett was pasting him all over but one big jab from 'the one big pussy-cat' caught Coleman and it hurt! I think the ref was a little bit hasty in calling it off, especially as Barrett was winning the fight up to that point!
I will certainly be keeping my eye out for the next Barrett fight, this guy is RAPID for a heavy!
