Harrison looks pretty drawn.

He often does at the weigh ins. usually looks much better come fight night.

Still tipping Brodie by UD though

He is always looks like skelator at the weigh in.... must put on a stone by fight time... Brodie on the other hand looks comfortable despite having to lose his pants to make the weight...

Harrison plays a dangerous game with his weight, i just hope its tomorrow the wheels fall off...............come on Brodie

Weigh in must have been pretty early too...... if pics are online already.... its a piss take really.... 2pm weigh in and 10pm fight..... 32 hours rehydration... no wonder Harrison can take such risks

Yeah Trickett wasn't happy, the weigh was brought forward 4 hours

Harrison looks much bigger, I can't see Brodie lasting the course with him he'll be 2 divisions bigger by fight time.

SEEMS MOST OF US WILL BE SHOUTING FOR MIKEY!!!

typical dumb ass article by BBC.... because brodie had to get naked he must have been really struggling whereas Harrison made it easy

dicks...... i would expect a weigh in to be 3pm or 4pm for a 9pm show, but this is a 10pm and it looks like the weigh in was at 12?? could anyone confirm??

definately a plan to allow Harrison more time to make weight, Brodie should have turned up really late, paid a fine but fucked up harrisons weight and mind a little...

i'm calling 'public execution'.

Harrison by sickening KO. This won't be pretty.

Riddick, do you feel Harrison is as good as Chi? I think of him as an inferior version with vastly overrated power, stamina problems and a weakness to body shots. This fight is def. winnable for Mike

no, but i've got a feeling brodie has nothing left and harrison will be all over him.

Cor fornicating blimey, Scott Harrison is almost unrecognisable compared to fight night, his head looks huge and his body looks incredibly skinny, that cannot be good for you. I know Hatton often looks drawn at the weigh in, but that's something else.

He looks so much bigger than Brodie though, didn't realise there was such a height difference.

To be honnest though when I look at those differences I start to feel that it would be a good idea to reinstate same day waigh ins because comming in at Harrison's size is verging on cheating, it is certanily gaining an unfair advantage.

Nah, it's definately a photo.

They did away with same-day weigh-ins because of fears that weight-drained boxers would not have enough time to rehydrate to a safe level before the fight. Of course what they should have been doing is legislating against weight-drained boxers, now they have allowed people to compete outside their natural weight class. Personally I think they should reinstate the same-day weigh-ins and combine that with several check-weigh-ins in the week leading up to the fight to ensure that the boxer is not majorly weight-drained when they officially weigh-in on the day.

Me too, I think he will survive a few shaky moments to take the nod

Allegedly Franny looks like he's carrying Harrison's extra weight around his neck.

And what's Peter Ebdon and Dale Winton doing in the background?


I go with Riddick Blowe. Harrison to win big. It'll be like any normal Saturday night in a pub toilet for him..

Shame as I like Mikey and loathe Harrison.

Harrison definately looks gaunt, i have never seen him that bad before. I pick him to wear Brodie down for a mid fight KO.

Dean Powell has really overdone the fake tan/sunbeds.

Is allegedly looking more and more like Robert Maxwell?

I agree with that - harrison looks like a lightweight for sure.

Check weighs are now in force for title fights. You get check weighed by the BBBofC 3 weeks before a fight and a few days before the official weigh in.

Do they tell you the exact day and time they're coming?

That is probably the worst I've seen Harrison at a weigh in. The other recent one that was shocking for me was Cotto at the weigh in for the Chop Chop fight. Both those guys didn't just look drained, they looked like different people!

He looks even better in this one.
