See he tko'd Vivian Harris in 3 last night. Mad that, remember as Brians career was starting vivian was touted as the guy who could beat Hatton, then Maussa surprised the world and dethroned him.funny sport boxing. Youd expect harris to be doing the circuit for the money with his name, but hes getting banged out left right and centre. Time to hang em up me thinks.

He should call it a day now, definitely. Credit to Rose though, you can only beat who's in front of you. Wasn't this a change of opponent for Rose?

Harris has lost something like 5 out of 7. He's not even a gatekeeper just falling into a journeyman. This is not setting Rose up for bigger fights. There's tougher fights at British level than this. But as was mentioned its not his fault.

Everyone knew Harris was too small for rose, chinny and on a big slide, so it was no shock to me, I don't even think it will do much for Rose's career, but at least he can say he beat a former world champion.

He was a class champ then lost a fight and became shit. It's weird when it happens. He's hardly old!

Vivian Harries was okay, but certainly many many better fighters cannot call themselves world champion.

For my money he lost to Oktay Urkal in the first fight (yes, a German not getting a decision in germany shocker) - Urkal was solid EBU level but no more.
