    Mansour making a step up. If he destroys Harris, would you be sold?

    Sold on what level? I think he's got domestic competitor ability, but he'll never be world class.

    Well, as slick and occasionally upset-prone as Sugar Mo Harris is - we're still talking about someone who has been stopped a dozen times.

    I guess in relative terms it will be substantially more creditable than Mansour's TKO1 of Dominique Alexander - but a knockout here doesn't automatically make a real player of Mansour, no.

    If he looks good against the shell of Harris, maybe another shopworn heavy with a name like Cunningham or Arreola is the way to go. Time's not exactly on his side.

    Maurice Harris?

    No, I wouldn't read into that very much at all.

    At forty he's going to make a slight step up to Mo frigging Harris before he goes to prison again. What a waste of a needed good heavy.

    That's a step backwards from when Amir fought Guinn. This is painful. They need to get him the Seth Mitchell fight in DC by the end of the year!

    That would be awesome. :lol:

    There would be lots of people eating crow or vanishing.

    Lots of "Mansour is the guy to beat Klitschko!! despite having never fought anyone with a pulse" stuff to bump. :yep

    Yeah this is not a step up at all. Guinn is the heavyweight measuring
    stick now. beat him go forward, lose go back. Mo betta's chin is
    beyond through.

    **** no. Harris has been KO'd like 58 times at this point, this is nothing more than a stay-busy fight. Maybe we're supposed to be impressed that Harris was a sparring partner for Lennox in the 20th century.
