Scott said that he appreciates any type of sparring as it is difficult to get heavyweight sparring partners. “I normally have to go to Dublin or to London and I thank Pawel and James for inviting me round, it’ll do me and them both good.
"I’m getting ready for the Prizefighter and can't wait"
MATCHROOM SPORT’S hugely successful Prizefighter returns in October with a new look and arguably the most exciting crop of British heavyweights ever assembled under one roof.
Taking place at London’s iconic boxing venue, the York Hall in Bethnal Green, on Friday, October 2, Prizefighter – the Heavyweights III – features former British, Commonwealth and European champions going for glory in a night where careers are on the line.
British Heavyweight Champion, Danny Williams, the man who effectively ended the career of Mike Tyson, steps up to the Prizefighter plate and will be joined by Olympic gold medallist, Audley Harrison, who will be looking to resurrect his career one more time.
“I’m looking forward to competing in the next instalment of Prizefighter,” said Harrison from his training base in California.
“I’ve been waiting for a solid opportunity to return to the ring and I intend to show my career is far from over." he added.
With seven 3 x 3 minute round fights, Prizefighter’s explosive all-in-one-night concept goes from strength to strength. With an £80,000 prize fund – the highest in Prizefighter history – as well a gilt-edged opportunity to get right back into contention, the assembled line up is the strongest yet by far.
The Prizefighters
British Heavyweight Champion, Danny Williams
Olympic gold medallist, Audley Harrison
Former British & Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion Michael Sprott
Two former British Champions - Scott Gammer and Michael Holden
Coleman Barrett, 26 year-old and undefeated
Danny Hughes, another undefeated prospect
Making up the eight for the York Hall is Scott Belshaw, who will be looking to emulate the feat of fellow Ulsterman Martin Rogan whose heroics won him the inaugural Prizefighter title.
