    I think he was in a bad car crash a few years back.

    I can remember seeing him fight Armand Krajnc because I am sure Sky showed the card the fight was on and Harry Simon looked pretty decent.

    He went to prison because he killed someone whilst driving. I think it was the second time he had killed someone whilst driving. Got away with it first time but got banged up the second time. Probably the most famous sportsperson to come from Namibia.

    Stupid ****head killed 2 people in one crash then in the crash for which he was sentenced he killed a baby and 2 adults. The murdering ******* is out of prison and was supposed to make a comeback but with his criminal conviction he will not get a visa for the USA so can kiss goodbye to making the mega bucks now.

    He was injured in the crash but who gives a **** about him when his negligent driving has killed 5 humans. The guy is a complete cockhead thinking he can get away with anything in namibia.

    I understand that Simon will be returning with E.Calzaghe in his corner. Maybe he will fight under Calzaghe Promotions with Pryce, Rees etc

    Simon was involved in a car accident in late 2002, and was seriously injured. Three Belgian tourists - two adults and a baby - died in the collision with Simon's Mercedes-Benz at Langstrand in November 2002. He was earlier involved in another car accident that saw two people killed. On August 5, 2005, Simon was given a two-year jail sentence after he was found guilty of "culpable homicide" stemming from the November 2002 car accident that resulted in the deaths of the three people
