| Never even heard about this before today.
Is Sculthorpe wanting an @$$ whooping or what?

| From what i've seen of the two players it'll be a fantastic match up. I believe McDermott was a handy boxer and Sculthorpe is known to have done padwork with Ricky Hatton. Should be a great fight!

| from what I've seen of these "fights" previously, is that it's basically who can swing their arms most for three rounds. Not much boxing actually takes place.

Much as I admired Scullys work with Ryan Bailey, there is no substitute for proper boxing training and doing a bit of padwork with Ricky Hatton is not that - that's a PR stunt
Last thing to go with age in boxing is power, I'd expect a knock out with this one

Scully never took a backward step against anyone. Nice bloke. Hard as nails. The only difference will be experience and technique.

Don't disagree. Experience and technique count for a lot though

I will refrain from the blindingly obvious comedic angle.

If memory serves, Brian Mac didn't throw [ithat[/i many punches as a Bulls' player, but probably put more people on their backside than anyone. It usually only took the one.

It won't be much of a contest.
Forget the punching power, Macca will know all about how to use the square circle pace himself. Scully will do well to last 3 rounds.

Quite agreee. A boxer will virtually always beat a banger; range and timing count far more than just swinging leather.

| According to Ewan Dowes on Twitter, McDermott won and "Dusted him up apparently".
Paul Wood has also mentioned Brian Mac won on points.

| No great surprise, he once decked half of the Leeds side so one man was never going to trouble Big Mac!

So would that be 6 players or almost 7 players he decked. You might want to watch it again Bully.
Can`t even remember one Leeds player getting knocked out in that match.
Even the heavyweight Damien Gibson stayed on his feet. Powder puff punches I would say. Still I wouldn`t start on him though.

I was a little disappointed it took so long to be honest.

Have another look at that video (1997 CC semi). Amusing if only because all the current Leeds coaching set-up are involved (Brian Mac & Lowes vs Barrie Mac and Gibson). Newton & Morley also involved.
