BBC -

Glasgow's Scott Harrison is still waiting to discover his opponent for the next defence of his WBO featherweight title.
Promoter Sports Network has a shortlist of three possible candidates for the 20 May date in Belfast.

Harrison was left in limbo last week after mandatory challenger Joan Guzman withdrew to move up weights.

But he and his manager Frank Maloney are expected to discover the identity of his replacement this week.

A spokesperson for Sports Network said: "We have a shortlist of three but no definite name.

"We hope to whittle that down and make an announcement soon."

Best guess for short list of three:

Barrera
Pac Man
Jo Schmo barman at the crown & anchor.

Don't knock Jo, I once saw him bum rush the great Joe Soap out of the crown and anchor, Soap had a good track record down at the local kebab shop, some would argue that Jo just caught him at the right time but I disagree.

Rematch Polo.

I would like to see in him in with Polo again, but from looking at the boxrec ratings i'm fully expecting Spend Abazi. Looks to have a padded but decent record (33-1) and is not the biggest puncher.
