Delighted about that weight for Sprott. And that's not sloppy, that's planned.

Looks like Sprott has played straight into Skeltons hands by coming in at that weight/condition.

Whats he gonna do out maul him?

Have to agree about Cook, he looks ill - After seeing that I wouldn't be surprised to see him getting stretched out.

Limond looks fit and in good shape.

Cook looks badly drawn and Luevano looks little better. Khan and especially Limond look good. Sprott seems out of shape regardless of whether it was planned or not. I hope Bradley Pryce sparks that tool he is fighting.

Jesus Cook looks terrible there, he must really boil down to get to Feather.

I've never, ever been impressed by heavyweights who 'plan' to come in at a higher weight than is natural. I just don't think it ever works. Sprott may bulk up to not get pushed around, but he is playing right into Skelton's hands who will maul him and push him around anyway. The increased weight will only sap his stamina and slow the hand and foot movement key to beating Skelton. It's another messy Skelton heavyweight fight on the cards, clearly.

Cook looks god-awful. Can't believe it. He looks dry as a bone. No wonder he fades in fights.

Khan has an amazing bone structure for a boxer -- very wide shoulders and a very slim waist. He looks good and healthy at the weight, as does Limmond who looks as fit as a butcher's dog. It's a good step up for Khan with whom I will be phenominally impressed with if he pays out all those on this message board who bet on him to do it inside three. I really thnk 11/2 is skinny for that. But if he does, I think we can start beleiving at least some of the hype.

Disappointed with Pryce, who has to tools to expose Small, but is clearly too small. He looks very soft at the weight.

Absolutely. I watched Mike spar last week & he looked sharp. He's trained hard for this one & definately up for it.

I think Skeltons weight is as interesting as Sprotts. I think Matt is going to try to dance.

Sprott on points, deffo.

Mitchell needs to learn some defence. That's all. He's really, really over-hyped. Even more so than Khan, in his own way. And when will he step up?

I believe the step-up is tentatively penciled in for 2010. It's one of my pet gripes this, the painfully slow progress of Kevin Mitchell.

I have to bump this and ask for an explanation by Abbo and boxingmad - Are you guys related to Sprott?
