Well we know lennox was such a great champion and clearly beat everyone he fought but then when he got up against vitali klitschko, he had no choice but to retire, then britain thought they had another great champion, when danny william destroy mike tyson in just four rounds.
britain have to also remember that lennox was the first british person in over 100years to win a world title in boxing top division. So how could they expect someone from britain to do achieve that just after few month after lennox lewis retirement.
We all seen the most embarrassing title fight when danny step up to vitali klitschko on 11 december 2004. This was not a good image for british boxing, especially compare to the one that lennox left.
Suddenly audley harrison beat danny william but by then danny was finish, he was really finish when taking unnessarily punishment from vitali 2 years before this fight.
Then you had audley harrison calling out wladimir klitschko, after he beat danny, but if this fight happened then it really could have made britain look finish in heavyweight boxing.
Am sure you know the answer yourself, Michael sprott may or may not have got a luck punch on audley harrison when knoked him out soo badly, but one thing for sure exposed his glass chin that no one really knew about, ok wladimir hasn't exactly got a iron chin like his brother but has never been knocked out clean apart from being t.k.o. But this was some years ago when wladimir looked like he had a pretty weak chin, his chin has surely got alot stronger as he proved against samuel peter or in other fight where he been knocked down but then suddenly get back up and does enough for a clear win.
My main poin is that wladimir right hand is not just soo much faster than michael sprot hand but is a 1000 times stronger than both of micheal sprot punches put together and if audley and wladimir did step up in the ring together then wladimir wouldn't even need to look for a lucky punches since he would be way too fast for audley and once wladimir right hand land on audley harrison glass chin...............................It would definantely been more embarrassing than the danny william lose against vitali.
And I wana say big thanks to michael sprot for exposing harrison and saving our country from embarrassment, but there still chances for britain doing even worser if sprot et a shot at a world title.
Let not forget michael sprot may have beaten danny william just once by points but has been knocked out danny williams 2 times.
