I found this on an on-line Pakistani newspaper, released 6 hourse ago.
Can anyone conferm this?
Bloodied WBO Boxing champion Scott Harrison was thrown out of a nightclub yesterday after a bust up.
He was asked to leave following a confrontation with up to seven doormen.
But the apparently furious WBO featherweight champ was reluctant to go on his own and had to be escorted from the nightspot by staff.
Onlookers said the 27--year-old was cut on the head and bleeding as he was led away.
It is the latest in a string of controversial incidents involving the fighter.
And it comes just a week after sentence was deferred on Harrison by the courts following a drunken row with a taxi driver.
The latest clash occurred in the early hours yesterday at the Centre Point club in East Kilbride.
Revellers said the boxer, from Cambuslang, near Glasgow, argued with the doorman after being asked to leave.
One witness claimed: 'The trouble flared around 1am. It centred on Harrison but no one seemed to know what caused it. There must have been six or seven doormen dealing with the incident. The whole thing only lasted two or three minutes.
'Obviously, they knew who Harrison was and must have been aware of what he was capable of doing if provoked.
'I had never seen so many staff to deal with just one individual but I can't blame them for responding in the way that they did.'
The source continued: 'As he left the club, he was bleeding from the head. I don't know how he got the injury but it looked quite nasty.
Bouncers do get quite a bad reputation for the way they handle some incidents but I think they behaved exceptionally responsibly and professionally here.'
A spokesman for the club yesterday confirmed there had been an incident, He said: 'A man was escorted from the premises by our security staff.'
I've no doubt that a world class featherweight could spark most of those big lumps on the door out. They are usually just hired muscle the big guys, it's the little guys on the door you want to worry about, because they are hired for one reason alone, and that's to kick arse.

Very, very true some of the toughest guys I've known are about the size of a Welterweight Boxer at best.
how would harrison fair against, say a few 6.5 17 stone doorman?? if he hit them on chin is that it??
All depends on the situation, you cannot categorise every 6ft 5 person thats 17stone into one block, does the individual have any fighting skills, is he 6ft 5 17 stone fat or 6ft 5 17st muscle (or inbetween) and most importantly whats the situation and whos the aggressor.

Exactly totally depends on fighting skills and strength. A 6'5, 17stoner of solid muscle with reasonably decent fighting skills and would lay Harrison out no prob. Average steroid head doorman who doesn't know how to throw a punch properly takes a beating
Whats up with Harrison anyway? Seems hes always involved in some scuffle.
