For some strange reason, Big John McDermott vs Gammer is the bout I find most intriguing!
Both whiteboys facing off against each other in last chance saloon....

I doubt Audley would get back in the ring with Sprott. He'll probably say 'no thanks' and fight some chump in 6 months.

Its crazy when you think about it, but Audleys pro career was the biggest farce that I think I have ever seen in boxing. Now Im no big fan of heavyweight boxing, so can someone please tell me how an olympic heavyweight gold medallist could be so bloody awful as a pro? Now I know some great amateurs dont cut it in the pro ranks, but did any heavyweight boxing olympic gold medallist in modern times fail as spectacularly as Audley did?
Honest question.

There will be limited interest in either of these given some of their past performances.
The only pair not to have fought yet are Harrison & Skelton.

Fucking great news. Good to see the BBBC getting the top guys to duke it out.
Based off how things are going it is all about Harrison-Sprott II and Williams-Skelton III.
These guys can make good money off each other. They just need to come in shape and entertain.

As much as I dislike Fraudley...I have a feeling he will avenge his defeat (not quite the same as LL though is he) against Sprott.
He was all over Sprott until Sprott closed his eyes and swung and landed a hayemaker. I think Fraudley's chin is china, but he has got good offense if he trusts himself to let go.
However, I think it would be bad if he did wn, as we would have to hear more of this world champion 2008 and undisputed 2010 bs.
As for Skelton what more does he have to do to get his championship shot. Dont get me wrong he is one ugly boxer/brawler but he has beaten the brits and should be stepping up. I doubt anyone would want to fight him though, but dont see much point in another williams bout

Williams impressed me against Scott Gammer to win the British title. He looked in shape and was actually able to throw more than three punches a round.
I've always regarded Williams as a better fighter than the rest of the British heavies, his loss to Audley was due to a shocking lack of fitness and a terrible cut suffered in the opening exchanges.
If he has maintained the conditioning he came in with against Gammer hopefully Williams can box Skelton and finally put an end to his appalling reign over the domestic scene. I simply cannot stand to watch Skelton, I don't think he is capable of providing any kind of entertainment in boxing and should go back to K-1.
A Sprott - Harrison rematch is beyond irrelevant and indeed if Harrison wins we will of course be reminded that Harrison will be World Champion within a year. Actually fuck it Harrison is hilarious and I would love to see him in the ring again!

Danny In shape Is capable of the European title.
Sprott was able to outbox Virchis and Williams would too.
I'm surprised Sucka or Zakman haven't posted yet about Audley's class chin.

This is most disappointing, I was hoping Sprott and Skelton would be indefinetely suspended for their abortion of a fight in July :deal

Are you 'elle' from ages ago?
These rematches just highlight how much this division needs a fresh injection of talent - maybe then British Heavyweights will be taken more seriously.

Both whiteboys facing off against each other in last chance saloon....Gammers hardly last chance saloon.. he was never that good to begin with.As for John i could never understand what all the hype was about.He was just a fat guy who needed to loose some weight!
Are you 'elle' from ages ago?
I don't know if there is another elle on the forum but i'm relatively new to the site and only post in the british boxing section!
