    I remember in 2003 after blowing out Barrera, Manny wasn't known as well as most of the stars from 122-130. He's come a long way since then.

    Whatever happened to Scott "The Real McCoy" Harrison, the former Scottish WBO 126 champ? There were rumors that he and Pacquiao would unify with his Ring belt back then. Those offers never materialized.

    That was 21 pounds and four weight classes ago, which is incredible when you think about it. From rumors of Scott Harrison to Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather. How time flies.

    Harrison decided it was a better career move to fight people for nothing in a bar instead of in the ring for money. It was probably better for him because Guzman would have made him look stupid.

    He got soundly beaten (althought the judges gave it a draw) by Victor Polo, who went on to get battered by JMM.

    Last report I heard he was hanging about with coke dealers, starting fights with his neighbours about football games and bringing call girls home to his house on a pretty regular basis - he lives round the corner from one of my mates.
    Just a shame he never got a serious kicking when someone could have done it legally.

    Wouldn't suprise me at all, he use to run about up East Kilbride causing bother all the time (to be fair with the amount of wido neds though it probably wasn't all his fault). Use to be thrown out of the boozers reguarly, remember hearing it needed 6 bouncers to do it one night, there where shitting it apparantly :admin

    Before the smoking ban you used to see the wee wank in Fouquets up the toon all the time, lighting bank notes off the candles on the tables then lighting cigars with them.

    Shame to hear he'd blown all his money recently and was looking to get back in the ring.:rofl

    Scott was a warrior but he lost to Manuel Medina and Mexico's finest along with Pac would have cut hm up and stopped him on cuts or body shots.
