WelshDevilRob Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 Round 3 bit of quiet round. Sprott should get the win. Quicker and more skilful. Plus more powerful. 30-27 by all the judges to Sprott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynbrawler Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Sprott vs McPhilbin should be a cracker of a fight! :) Skelton vs McBride to get out of the way first... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynbrawler Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Another crappy fight... I don't like Skelton's style at all...and McBride's isn't much better. There wasn't a whole lot done in that round. More hugging than anything else, and Skelton may have edged it, but he;s killing this as an exhibition.

brooklynbrawler Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Second knockdown of the night is ignored. McBride dropped Skelton cleanly, after Skelton started the round well boxing from distance. There goes the punch resistance I was talking about... It turned back into a hugfest after it looked like Skelton should have been stopped too. McBride by a distance in the second though. 1-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 1st round Skelton. 2nd to McBride. McBride scored a knockdown and Skelton was in trouble but the ref didn't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynbrawler Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Skelton's turned it back into a hugfest. He won the 3rd though and now will likely take the fight even though he should have been counted out in the 2nd. Skelton landed a couple of flush punches, then hit the deck for the second time after a push from McBride. Pretty shocking if Skelton takes this one, after the poor refereeing in the 2nd. Loughlin is usually decent too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynbrawler Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Cracking chin on McPhilbin...he ate up a huge punch and barely flinched. It's a bit messy again, not quite what I expected... Sprott maybe slightly took the round, but McPhilbin had his moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynbrawler Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Sprott is spoiling a bit here. His speed is telling though, and he's landing the better punches because of it, then nullifying McPhilbin's attacks by spoiling. I have it 2-0 Sprott, but it's not been easy. McPhilbin is struggling to land, and get through Sprott's defence, otherwise we could be looking at a different fight,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 Sprott winning both 1st 2 rounds for me. McPhilbin took a good shot in the 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheelchair Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 So, the final. With his superior handspeed Sprott will KO Skelton in the final. Matt's just not got it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted October 9, 2010 Author Share Posted October 9, 2010 Decent win for Sprott and he's paced himself better than Skelton going into the final. Also, Skelton could still be slightly grogy from the knockdown in the McBride fight. I think Sprott could well KO Skelton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynbrawler Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Thing is, Sprott doesn't have a great chin either. I did notice that this is Sprott's 50th professional fight, which gives it an extra sweetener. I don't see beyond Sprott...Skelton may have 2 wins over Sprott, but they've both come in 12.
