After Harrison throughing a hissy fit over the judges I just get a feeling that he might be nervouse about Brodie. I have an upset feeling I don't respect Harrison's skill and I think Brodie is under rated. He certainly seems a nicer bloke.

Don't agree Brodie is under rated - we already know the full picture on him because he's had a legitimate career/tested his limits. He can give Scott loads of problems with his boxing and may be winning up until he gets caught, but caught he will be, like he always seems to. I think it'll happen around 8-10.

Don't begrudge Brodie his chance but I didn't like the idea of this fight when it was first announced. Thought it would be too much at the wrong time for Mikie. He'll have to be at his best for this one, IMO.

A win over Harrison can never be called an upset now, because every time before he fights everyone points out his weaknesses. :lol:

As for the officials: I can see what Maloney's beef is with Coyle and Francis, not bothered with Vann, don't know about Parris.
