SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
Who cares ? he was sh*t anyway.
I much prefer the Scots like Anderson, Appleby, Burns and Simpson.
Good fighters with a bit of pride about them.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
I think Burns would be able to beat him. He would just need to fight a replica of the Martinez fight. Harrison wasn't as good as Martinez when he was active, I doubt he is as good as Martinez now.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
He may struggle to make weight these days but if he's half the fighter he once was then he could cause a stir at whatever weight he comes back at, hopefully
Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
Theres a few money spinners for him if he can get back. Alex arthur fight/ lee macillster??
Id keep away from burns wont get down to the weight and hes at his peak, but the above too he could make a few quid up here id say.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
What nonsense. Harrison was a very good fighter - never the best in his division, but definitely world class. He was a little limited, but incredibly strong and tough at his best.G0mez wrote:Who cares ? he was sh*t anyway.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
It's debatable I think. A prime Scott Harrison got beaten by Manuel medina and drew with Victor Polo, who aren't as good as martinez either. Harrison was a good fighter but had his limitations. I'd like to see him vs Burns though. I think Burns has the style to beat him.black panther wrote:PaddyBoxing wrote:I think Burns would be able to beat him.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
Not taking anything away from Burns,the martinez victory is the best victory for a british point of view this year...But Cook is the only name on his record..Harrison beat far better people..Burns is still learning&going forwards....PaddyBoxing wrote:It's debatable I think.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
Exactly mate, styles make fights. Harrison struggled mightily with Medina and Polo for sure - he struggled with movers. That's why Burns would probably give him a tough time. At the same time because of their respective styles, I feel Harrison would have handled Martinez with less bother than Burns did. Harrison's iron chin and textbook hard punching would have been a nightmare for the wide swings of the "come at you" Martinez.PaddyBoxing wrote:It's debatable I think.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
Even if Harrison get's his licence back when he get's outta jail does he really deserve a shot at Burns? I'd be a big fight in Scotland but it wouldn't really prove much. In his prime i reckon Harrison woulda beat Burns but right now i dont think Burns would have any problems with him. I hope Scott does fight again everybody deserves a chance to redeem themselves.

Re: SCOTT HARRISON COMEBACK???
Money talks, Harrison will still be a name and a ticket seller and will get his shot if he comes back. Same reason as Audley Harrison gets his shot against Haye IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY!!

I think Scott would need several fights before he got a ranking and any hope of a title shot.Has i say Ricky aint losing any sleep worring about it,if it happens it happens.Coco wrote:Money talks, Harrison will still be a name and a ticket seller and will get his shot if he comes back.

Martinez was one of the weakest champions I've ever seen, Harrison would've mugged him in his prime, easily.PaddyBoxing wrote:It's debatable I think.
