Former WBA Super/lightweight champion, Vivian Harris’ attempt to redeem himself on the international boxing scene suffered a blow when he was knocked out in the 4th of a scheduled 8 rounder against undefeated Puerto Rican, Prichard ‘Digget’ Colon at the Ricoh Coliseum, Toronto Ontario Canada last Saturday evening.
The fight was one of the preliminaries of a card dubbed ‘Premier Boxing Champions’ that featured light heavyweight world champion Adonis ‘Superman’ Stevenson, defending against Tommy ‘Kryptonite’ Karpency. Details of the fight are sketchy but Kaieteur Sport learnt that the Puerto Rican was much too strong for Harris whose long layoff from the ring acted against him. His last bout before the Colon encounter was a losing attempt against Ramon Alvarez for the vacant IBF North American super/welterweight title ten months ago.
Colon has improved his record to an impeccable 16-0-0 record and has stopped thirteen of his opponents. Harris is by far the more experienced but Colon proved the better on fight night. Kaieteur Sport will attempt to speak with Harris to ascertain his next move in the fistic sport.
