Live Updates: Scott Harrison vs Nedal Hussein

[Tony Blitz]

i think scott harrison does NOT have the power to KO or even outwork any currrent champs, but then again, i havent seen scot harrison fite that many times.

Harrison is definetly beatable, once you break his confidence he absorbs a lot of hits and won't fire back as often

furthermore, aussies have more face..........they'd rather lose fair, than win in dodgy decisions.........

[!!! Beowulf !!!]

not heart at all mate.........far from it........if you can't have good competition and regular fights, than it is going to be very difficult to improve.....

at least in the U.K you have many more fighters (population) and are in europe, russia, etc.........

it is very difficult for us to get fighters in.....indonesia has only a couple fighters .....

so basically, if you are based in australia, the chances are very very remote that you can get good fights, good sparring, etc....

Australia is still a fairly well populated and sports friendly country though, it just surprises me that the Aussie competitiveness hasn't translated itself to Boxing.

Looks like they're doing a lot of losing fairly recently.













Couldn't resist, sorry.

too difficult mate..........if we were 20 million in the one state, yes we would be better.............but seeing that we are strewn over the vast country, it makes the development so difficult.....

it is hard to finance a tournament in perth and have amateurs in from brisbane........whereas you guys can bus it from southampton to glasgow in an early morning....

and as mentioned, we are just so far away from the rest of the world and competitive boxing nations...........

it won't be long though until we are beating england at football.......mark my words...

No problem, sorry for the last few rounds I was talking to brown bomber on how to view his fight. I hope I didn't judge it too badly, just going by what I believe wins in fights

stop bragging!!!!!!!!!!!!

yes indeed mate...except for the tszyu fight which was very dodgy with a pom referee..........

but you'll never see an aussie world champ fighting at home all protected and still get dodgy decisions............

do i need to remind you of harrison, calzaghe, nelson, etc who never leave and fight more bums than a rio beach has!

Sorry dudes i woulda done the thing but well done to Tony. I was watching it.

The Amir Khan one started off really well. Amir was anxious it seems, to go for the KO right from the bell. He began by throwing lots of jabs but soon trapped his man and began to unload some really nice combos. Body-head-body-head. It basically went on. Amir was dominating, with hands down in places. However the commentators where saying he needs to fix that or he will be punished in the future. They are right about that, it seemed that when he had his man on the ropes he let his defence go and just unloaded shots. If the dude had a bit more heart and threw shots back one may have caught. I dont think Amir's chin is that bad though....

Basically Amir was battering Gethin and it ended in the 3rd when he had him on the ropes and hit him with an uppercut and about 6 straights (one of the straights hit his glove the rest hit him in the face). Then the ref jumped in. At first i was like WDF! I thought the ref had stopped it prematurely. But when i saw the replay i suppose you could argue that it was a fair stoppage. The man definetly could have gone on, but i think it was more of a matter of he wasnt throwing any shots. He completley went into his shell. Oh yeah i forgot to mention, Amir was using the jab and left hook to counter nicely. This intimidated Gethin, but i sense it wouldnt intimidate fighters with a bit more heart.

Anyway. Peace.

Ill try and find the fight and get it up for you lot like i did with the other fight of Amir's.
