Collins' decision to throw in the towel in Brisbane was called "cowardly" and "a disgrace" by co-promoter Bob Arum. Harding, now unbeaten in 16 fights, knocked Collins over in the first round and a punishing attack late in the second session prompted the retirement. Collins said he was punched in the throat in the first and had been unable to recover but officials withheld his £15,630 purse and cash for TV rights.
