Sorry if I'm repeating anything here, but whilst Brodie looks awful, wasn't Medina considered even more gone?
I know it's not the same situation, especially given Brodie's tendancy for a tear-up, but I'm not sure you can ever write off a decent fighter against Harrison. He's strong, yes, but other than that, I don't see him as particularly excelling in any area. He's looked at his worst against fighters he was meant to walk through. I admit bias here though, because Brodie is one of the few fighters I've met, and he was a top, top man. So I'm pretty much rooting for him.
Still fancy Harrison to win between 8-10, but I've done that before, and those have been the fights he's come undone in.......

I so want one of those stair lifts.jamesmcdonnell wrote:Better start getting into those sunday supplements, they normally have a couple of pairs of 'comfort fit casual style pants' with 'elasticated waist' for 'freedom of movement.'
Having said all that, I'm sure you're healthier than me right now, I noticed myself huffing after running up a flight of stairs the other day. Better get the mountain bike back into action or I'll need a stannah stair lift at home.
The Cleto Reyes gloves on there cost loads!
One factor that I don't think has been mentioned (sorry if it has) is Brodie's inactivity. He hasn't fought for over a year. How much of a burden will this has.
He is usually a 3 times a year fighter, so its hard to know how much ring rust will effect him - its not the best preperation. Its a pity he never had that fight with Roy Rutherford in November.
