If the Hearn's are reading this: I'll take my payment for the idea in cash please :deal Could make it the first ever Prizefighter held in Scotland as well. Double whammy! If it's 130 then as well as 32K the winner could get a shot at Burns down the line :yep
I got a bit excited tbh :smoke. Still waiting for my payment from Hearn. It's been more than 10 minutes, not good enough :nono
Hope Scottish fight fans get behind a Harrison comeback the way Mexicans get behind their returning heroes. Limond was not the kind of 'name' that Morales fans would connect with but they showed up en masse to support him.
Hope it comes off for him.Willie's a top guy who hasnt had any breaks,im sure he could beat most LW in the country given the chance.
nono The lightweights were held at the kelvin hall, Ryan Brawley won it, i dont blame you for forgetting though as it was probably the worst prizefighter yet.
I had absolutely no idea that even happened My idea might still work, most people will have probably erased that from their memories
I hope Scott finds peace within himself wether it be through boxing or any other avenues. I do think boxing is what he needs though but I'm certain he will never make 130 pounds, or even 135. Maybe a couple of 8 rounders on the domestic scene will let us know what he's got left and then we can start thinking about any more than that.
Unless the guards are letting him out to go clubbing im pretty sure he will be officially off the booze. I'd love to see him make a return to the domestic scene then maybe even become involved from a training standpoint eventually. I truly believe he needs to be kept involved in the sport whatever he chooses to do and maybe now that the millions have likely dried up (if he ever had millions) there should be no hangers on to lead him a stray. I watched his fight against the US based armenian Abelyan recently and Maloney was quoted as saying he didnt want Scott anywhere near that guy then he pummeled him to defeat in 3 or 4 rounds with pure strength and aggression, followed by billy running into the ring and jumping on him lol. Scott was a very good fighter and back then would have been a handful for any of the best guys imo.
This will be a disaster. Harrison was an ok boxer who's biggest asset was being able to out size his opponent.
