    Scotty Harrison.

    Man, when I was watching Arthur vs Cook I couldnt help but think Scotty would have spanked both of those guys on the same night if he hadnt went insane instead!!!
    People miss naz for his razzamatazz, but I miss Scotty for his no-nonsense brutality.
    The featherweight & super-featherweight divisions are a much poorer place without the teak tough tartan terror, of that there is no doubt. Still ****in kills me what hapened with Scotty:|

    Got to agree with Dunky. I miss Harrison for the shows in Glasgow, was never his biggest fan but i always had some admiration for Harrison

    Lennox Lewis. He would clear up this mess known as the heavyweight division.

    Jimmy Wilde - Would love to have been able to see more of his fights.
    It would also be interesting to see how he would compare to some of the current flyweights.

    I was gonna say Nigel Benn easily as he's my favourite fighter, but then I saw this and thought of some of those fights so now i'm saying Naz :good

    I'd have to go for Naz I reckon.

    Although he would still lose to JMM, PAC and Barrera :good

    Have to agree with those who said Watson, was a better boxer than Benn and Eubank i.m.o

    If I was to bring back any Canadian boxer it would be Lennox Lewis

    Benn. Easily. I'd love to see him fight a prime Joe C and mixing it with Kessler, Pavlik, Taylor. Alot of names for him to put on their behind!
