The New Age Boxing podcast are claiming Lucas Browne was knocked out cold during his final sparring session prior to fighting Dillian Whyte.
Who by?
Forget where i heard / read it but a few days before the fight there was a rumor Chisora KO'd him in sparing.
Browne looked very old in there and got punished... Should probably call it a day.

The point made on the podcast referred to earlier in this thread (New Age Boxing) was that the way Browne was out cold when he hit the floor in the fight with Whyte gave credence to the rumour that he had been knocked out in sparring 10 days before.
The medical checks done before the fight by the board surely would have involved some sort of question about whether or not he had been knocked out in sparring recently?
For what is worth, in the New Age Boxing podcast Terry and one of the others claimed they had very reliable information Browne had been KOed in his final sparring session. They also said where it occurred, what day it occurred and both claimed they knew who did it.
I'm not making mention of this because Browne lost. The way he fought he wouldn't beat Whyte no matter how good a camp he had.
brownes manager admitted that del floored him in the final sparring, but said that browne carried on with 7 more rounds with del and then 5 more with gorman
