Bru Swain Audley Harrison hits hard? That was his 28th fight. 18 months after David price knocked him out in the first minute of the first round in price's 14th fight. His 29th fight was against gavern, a texan gardener who hadn't trained for over 2 years and was given 6 days notice. And he didn't knock him out, gavern quit on his stool at the end of the interval after the 5th completely gassed out. Your last sentence is very true.
