    For December 1st @ Kelvin Hall.

    John gets another big all Scottish battle and Harrison would have the test he dearly needs to show where he's at.

    It's a rumor but the man who told me is a real man in the know :yep.

    Simpson will give him a test that's for sure, sounds good to me, Harrison to win via mid-late stoppage though, just a feeling

    Id probably go, just to go to the Kelvin Hall, apparently a great atmosphere. Hopefully some decent fights would be made for the card but as its Wazzla I very much doubt it. Theres not many scots working at a decent level yet but we can still have competitive matchups made

    Easy win for Harrison over the 68 year old BBC World Affairs editor surely?

    Does this set up the titanic battle between Scott Harrison and Ricky Burns then?

    "The battle for the jock straps" (straps, as in belts......of course! I swear, you lot have got some dirty minds!!!)

    Ricky Burns is the captain of the Titanic, if he stays on board with Mr. W-arren.

    Better get the violins out on deck.......the end is coming.

    Simpson would win this quite easily I think, Harrison looks totally done.

    Simpson is a natural Featherweight...Derry Matthews would be more of a test for Harrison, no wonder Frank turned it down, he doesn't want Scott getitng beat before he milks Burns/Harrison.

    If this fight does go ahead, it would be awful to see Harrison win. Here's a man who pissed his talent up the wall outside the ring, against a guy like Simpson, an utter professional who has never had the breaks and has arguably the best domestic resume in and around his weight class bar none.

    I'm for Simpson. Go on John!

    Hope to **** John puts an end to our worries about Ricky giving Growler a shot.
    Harrison is a beast of a trainer so fact he's gassing tells me it just ain't there for him anymore.
