This loss is going to affect Harrison for a long time. He couldn’t even be gracious in defeat and acknowledge Nelson, who walked up to him.
Good fighter..but he needs more maturity. A loss is not the end of his career.
I agree. He was dominating the fight. Nelson didnt look like he came to fight. If he continues to fight like that and not even use his reach advantage, he might as well quit now.
?
I had it a good fight. No domination at all – though I give credit for body blows. Seems even professional boxing densest do that.
Remember he was coming off a long lay off.
He got those cob webs out at the end. Now someone needs to make him watch Wlad Klitch and immolate his style because he is so much taller than MOST of his opponents. JAB and straight rights. Stop the “hook every time” .
