Surprised to learn the WBO belts actually cost a bit. I thought they were knock up jobs - 'made in Taiwan' style. Sadly, however much they cost, for what they are worth they're still cheap shite at the end of the day.

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.......

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.
I so want one of those stair lifts. :TU:
The Cleto Reyes gloves on there cost loads! :o

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.
