Since Marquez is now his Mandatory what do you guys think?

Ain't seen Marquez fight.

One of the worse matchup's Harrison could have. Very skilled guy, one dimentional you could say as he can only really fight on the backfoot. But he can look amazing given the right style of opponent. Scott Harrison has the worse style possible for fighting him. Marquez is a really tough guy to beat for anyone because of his style. He would totally mash Scott Harrison up. If Scott got ultra cautious and didn't go foward he would only lose by wide decision, if Scott comes to fight he gets stopped in about 8.

One of the best counter punchers in the game, terrible comeback fight for Harrison.

Marquez TKO 10

Yup.. very bad fight for Harrison. He will lose.

I dont see how Harrison beats Marquez. He would take a hell of a beating before being stopped late.

I have a feeling Harrison may return at 130 and the fight wont happen.

I hope the fight gets made after Scott has had a warm-up fight (if poss), JMM is a quality operator and I'd strongly fancy him to beat Scott and anyone else in the division, but I want to see our top fighters in top-class clashes and you just never know Scott might pull it off.

If Harrison returns, and if it's at featherweight, I can't think of a worse fight for him. Marquez would win at a canter. The clash of styles makes for Harrison taking a pasting, I would have thought.

If his management wanted him to run up to superfeather to get away from Guzman then they're hardly gonna want him to hang around to fight Marquez who would batter poor Harrison.

if an ancient medina, and a semi decent polo could give harrison all he could handle then its not hard to imagine what JMM would do to the scot. Also factor in scotts recent troubles and slight inactivity, its an awful first fight back for the champ.

a reckon if this fight happens and harrison loses a can see his career just going down the drain

Spot on, only one winner here for me and that is Marquez by stoppage late on.

Harrison has never been in the elite fighter group at his weight and if this fight happen's that will be cemented....Very bad fight for Scott IMO.

Harrison's a decent fighter and a hard mofo, but he's slow and predictable, and a master counter-puncher like Marquez will just take him apart round by round. As others have said, the only outcome I can envisage in this fight is a mid to late rounds stoppage win for JMM.

Could Marquez handle Scotty's strength though?

Plus Harrison's chins good so it will most likely be a decision.

Marquez is a tough guy. Strength wouldn't be an issue here. Skill counts for almost every thing in boxing. This is the kind of fight which would showcase JMM's skills. People would come away from watching the demolition wondering how he's not the champ.

Polo had Harrison in trouble as have another couple of fighters. The amount of shots he'd take against a boxer with Marquez's underated power and skill I think a stoppage is a fair opinion.

Harrison doesn't lack heart though and will probably fight on for as long as he's aloud.

Gotta agree harrison is out of his depth here and will be on the wrong end of a bad beating. But whatever you say about harrison you have to say he's got balls - he deserves a lot of respect for taking on the best guy in the division(if the fight goes through - and i have to say I have my doubts).

Can Harrison stay off the Tennents though? I'm not convinced this fight will happen. I bet Harrison moves to 130.

marquez is top drawer.

he beat chris john and got robbed over there.

marquez KO11.

Marquez has always been a fantastic boxer but that left uppercut of his in his last fight was lethal . It was simply devastating and it destroyed a very durable fighter in Jandaeng .

Marquez wins a mid to late round Tko .

No one will KO Harrison clean.

Maybe a TKO but his chin is too good for any featherweight to score that clean.

Got sent a Chris John download but it never worked, but fightnews scored it for John.

John is much more elusive than Harrison...much quicker...but not as strong..

You have said you've never seen Marquez fight , well believe me if Marquez can land the same left uppercuts he landed on Jandaeng he will not only stop Harrison but he will KO him clean . Harrison has a very good chin for a featherweight but Marquez will land too much much , too clean , and in the end the punches will be too powerful .

I agree, Scott loses this one, by a big KO too, then the decline of Harrison gets in to full swing.
