    He will be very shortly,we have the very best sparring for this fight top drawer.
    IMO Ricky's looking even better than at this stage before the Mitchell fight

    Scott's In the shape of his life for this fight he ready to go now anytime, the boy Walsh is going to get a severe beating. Wit a story, you could write 5 books about harrisons life.

    Might put a wee bet on Scotty, hope he pulls it off. Billy did you two fall out?i think most sensible fans know he's nowhere ricky just now but do you want him to lose?

    Well let's see what happens, I know Scott a whole lot better than most but to say he looks better now than when he was 25 is simply nonsense or wishful thinking.
    The bookies don't often get it wrong 1/3 Liam Walsh is about right taking into account everything. I sense you think Liam is a bit of a walkover,the second half of the fight will be very interesting!

    Never would I want him to lose but I'm being realistic regarding his chances after being so long out and he's up against a very good fighter so much better than the last two who he never sparkled against

    Agreed and it's probably miscomunication, just seems you would be happy to see him fail. Nonetheless as much as I want him to win he is pretty much going to be a good domestic fighter from now. Burns is our boy on the world scene and will be for some time. Also to be honest it's nice to haue a scottish champ who is an absolute credit to us. A gent, very likeable lad makes him so easy to support

    He looks more defined more muscle, when Scott was 25 he sometimes looked Terrible at the weigh in due to the amount of weight he had lost. I know come fight night he had put a stone and a half on and looked better, but that couldn't have be good for him. Not that problem now he's been sparing 15 rounds at a time. I am telling you he means business for this one.

    Muscle definition isn't really related to boxing performance. Guerrero looks like **** compared to most guys he's beaten as a recent example

    Well in glad that in your opinion he looking in good nick all I'm saying is he will need to be coz Liam is very much a PROFFESIONAL in and out of the gym .
    I'm sure after the fight we'll have a better idea to see if either of the guys are ever going to be a worthy challenger to Ricky, I will tell you something now Scott never ever sparred 15 rounds in any session so I think your not being honest mate:think:think:nono:nono

    Billy you know Scott so you should know not to write him off a guy with his strength and heart its going to take a lot to beat him.
    Wayne said after his fight he punched harder than morales, Robinson said he punched harder than hamed and you say Appleby punches harder than him, geese a break.
    I know you like a bet ,get your money on a harrison stoppage.

    That came from a reliable source, when you trained him it was all about losing weight, now it's about boxing, he could make the weight tomorrow if he wanted.

    Maybe that was true 10 years ago but spanish jail and buckfast will have taking scottys power away, that goes the same for his heart. I for one will take great joy in seeing someone like harrison finally get what is coming to him. Walsh UD in the same fashion as Calzaghe vs Lacy would be perfect.

    I know that mate more muscle uses more oxygen and can sometimes hamper a fighter but all I said was he was in great shape, we will soon find out if it's going to help him in the ring. I've got my tickets and will be there to see it.

    Hope so bud. I just think comparing him to even being near burns' level is incredibly naive. Scotty is rebuilding his career just now whereas burns is potentially heading for unification fights
