Lost every round on all three cards vs Zuri Lawrence, and I'm absolutely made up about it :lol:

Lawrence v Greenberg, anybody? :TU:

Zuri is a very, very under-rated journeyman.

Against Rahman he gave him an unpleasant time, considering he only had a few weeks notice, and didn't do badly against Brock at the start. His chin isn't the best, though.

IMO the best resumé of all the HW gatekeepers.

He snapped Vidoz too.

Yeah Lawrence does spring a surprise now and again, look at some of the names he's beat Derek Williams, Darroll Wilson, King Ipitan, Paolo Vidoz, Jameel McCline and now Sosnowski.

The only one recently who's done a number on him early is Dominick Guinn, which going by Guinns form shows boxing is a funny old game.

Didn't he draw with Guinn in the first fight they had?

Lawrence probably was paid by Guinn's management to take a dive. The only other man Guinn has stopped in years is Phil Jackson who clearly took a dive.

Guinns management must of being trying to buy confidence boosters for their man.

Nah Lawrence never took a dive against Guinn, i've seen the fight, and Lawrence was out cold before he hit the floor.

Nothing dodgy about it

80-72 x3 was a bit harsh but Zuri was a clear winner

Actually i got that fight mixed up with Lawrence v Brock, that was a cold KO by Brock.
In the Guinn fight he knocked Lawrence down a couple of times and the ref stopped it.

I do have to concede there are less brutal KOs out there.

Glad Sosnowski lost, the fraudster.

Was his WBF belt on the line? I thought the original opponent was Kevin Burnett...what happened to him?

Ho ho, Sonowski's team got too ambitious with the matchmaking there :D

Fancy rushing him into a fight with Zuri after only 44 bouts :wink:

Please say this puts paid to any hope he had of challenging for one of the more genuine world titles.

It actually might get him a fight against a bigger name now, Sosnowski's managment might just try and cash in , as they can no longer keep playing the paying public along

Hardly Andrew Golota is he? What a pitiful record.

Throw him on the scrap heap, unless Team Greenberg get on the blower.

Audley needs a comeback opponent! Has he still got the WBF title?

Believe it or not, Albert Sosnowski holds the WBF title :lol: :lol:

So we could have Audley saying he's the true holder, and the mighty Sosnowski is a pretender to the title.

Kind of like the first Ali v Frazier fight.

Don't think I could get to complete opposites in boxers to sound alike again.

Sosnowski has only been keeping Audley's belt warm for him!

I guess we might see this one over here on Boxing US on ch5.
Actually i hope they do show the bill as Ali Oubaali is on there as well, he's the guy who narrowly beat Ashley Theophane in his previous fight.
Quite an entertaining boxer is Oubaali , real come foward argessive type, can be outboxed , but good to watch.
