    i dont give a **** what the cynics on this site think, id ****ing love to see him make a comeback! if hes kept himself ticking over in prison (which he must have focused on cos theres **** all else to do in there) then he could get himself in tip top condition in no time when he gets out.

    hes got to have something to still offer domestically at least, **** prizefighter i dont want him to go in that. get him a couple of decent tune up fights and throw him in with someone who'll give him a true test to see how he fairs & to give us all a good idea of where hes mentally & physically at...

    Would be good to see him get his boxing together .He couldn't go near the drink though at all man I don't think .They say onced an alcahloic always an alcaholic .If he was to roll his sleeves up and work hard man i'd like to see a comeback .Touches a drink I don't see it ever happening though not inless he can touch it and leave it alone .I read Eamonn MaGee can do that but not Harrisoon .Good luck to him anyway man .

    Only problem I see is booze .Hopefully not though but he could be looking forward to getting out of jail and going to the pub as well man for a swally .I think if he stops boozing altogether man that's the only way for a pro to take there training serious especially with an alcahol addiction .Jason Booth is a good example as well .

    Other problems are age 34, inactivity and (presumeably) having to fight at 135+. I wish him all the best but I can't see him getting to a domestic title shot.

    There's no way he can ever make that weight. He used to come in the ring at 147 when he was a featherweight and that was years ago!?!?! :yikes Remember this guy had been making 126 since he was 15.
    A comeback doesn't sound like a good idea to me at all.

    I only read a couple of weeks ago that he could be facing trial for a fight in a brothel and could face eight years in jail?? Anyone know about this.

    Light welterweight Prizefighter or summat.

    Dunno why but I have a feeling his punch resistance will be shot to ****.

    Its a shame the life style he leads stole him away from boxing during what would of probably been prime years, saying that being behind bars has hopefully kept him dry (from alchohol), for a while so who knows. I really enjoyed watching Harrison fight but can only hope he has something left in the tank
