What's the latest, is no news good news, at least we haven't heard about him head butting anyone lately, which has to be a step in the right direction.

Have any of his cases gone to court yet?

Is he in training, if so who with?

I don't think, from what I have read, it was his fault. Didn't he have a hearing in Spain and a seperate one in Glasgow - so he couldn't attend both (or something like that). From what I remember it was quite legitimate why he didn't attend.

I agree with Real deal - he's finished IMO, such a shame.

he'll come back at 34 / 35 at lightweight or lightwelterweight. A shadow of his former self, he'll win a couple of tune ups then lose at fringe british level (or similar)... tis a shame.

Last i heard was he had his passport confiscated by the Spanish authorites, so he couldn't do a runner from the country. This was after he was involved in a fight at a local bar (brothel)

From which country, the UK or Spain?

He was up in court in Spain a few weeks ago and was due to be up in court in Glasgow a few days later but the Spanish judge wouldn't authorise the return of his passport so he missed the trial in Glasgow. Dunno if he was remanded in custody in Spain or released on bail.

Still in Spain as far as I know... I think its all over for him now and he'll just be lucky if he doesnt end up killing himself or somebody else...
Hopefully he's having some kind of treatment now...

Such a waste. I always enjoyed watching Scott Harrison fight as much of a dislikable person he was outside the ring. Could have featured in some great match ups if he had got his act together. Looks too late now though.

I think the rot set in quite early in his reign as well, early in his career he was very impressive then after winning the title seemed to become one dimentional... now we all know why, and its a great shame...

He always was one dimensional IMO. I remember him fighting Tom Johnson and thinking, if this was 5 years ago Johnson would have anhilated him. Always was slow and easy to hit.

Just a hard, hard man with phenominal strength at 9stone.... but always beatable.

Steve Robinson would have been easily too much prime for prime (no bias from me there

)
