Sprott was out sparring with Povetkin for four weeks and apparently did well. Then he felt very sick at the weekend, was flown home and went straight to A & E where he was diagnosed with pneumonia. He's on the mend now. I heard Skelton was offered the fight but declined it, late notice and all.

What a nitemare for Sprott, hope he makes a good recovery.
