Sprott beats hide, he has underrated power, and Hide's chin won't have gotten better with age.

Harrison I think on the evidence of what we saw the other night beats Williams, probably Sprott depending on how mentally strong Sprott is, and everyone else in the UK too.

allegedly has played a blinder here.
The two major challengers are in separate stables whereas Frank has signed enough Heavyweights up to create a mini league of "box offs" between the protagonists domestically.
Can you seriously see Hide back in bed with Frank ?
Can you serioiusly see Audley doing business with Frank ?
No and no.
So its a case of dream on lads, cos the fights you're theorising won't happen in my view.
It smells of the Light Middle situation we had 18 months ago.
There were so many opportunities to put on some classic fights that we'd have loved - and not one happened due to the Promotors, not the fighters.

No way Hide should be given a Brit title shot after running from Williams when he had the chance to get knocked out again.

Let him box off with Williams to earn a shot.
let's face it, he's beaten no-one in his comeback so far, the most dangerous guy he's met was in a Norwich nightclub.

I'd give him a chance with Sprott if they do make the match: fast hands, decent punch etc.
But if Sprott land first, it's goodnight sweet prince.
