    Juvenile behaviour to even to consider Harrison winning this fight he's not been fighting at competitive level for years and bad living etc I think the all he's aces where held being big and strong as a feather weight he Wouldn't hold them either

    Ricky couldn't knock out a fart so how could he stop a strong clever come forward fighter like Scott. His soft single jabs wouldn't do it. He moans when getting hit with hooks to the body (no not straight left hooks like billy asked him to throw v Crawford). I

    He was also extremely skilful at moving in and out of range. If he's 70% of before that's to much for burns. Harrison is a big lightweight to. Burns is now scared if getting punched, and his last three opponents hit him with double the number of punches that he hit them with, and he's one that lacks power, and moans of being hurt to body. Harrison's hooks are his best shots, not straight hooks like billy tells Ricky to throw. No wonder he's struggling with advice like that and Ricky speed kills and your quicker than him (only time he was quicker than Crawford was when he was running away from him) lol

    I take my hat of to Ricky had a good career, great when u consider average ability, had a good heart too, that's until Beltran broke his jaw. Made best of his tools, but is generally boring to watch and lacks a punch, combine that with being shy of taking a punch he should retire. Ricky seems a good guy, but Billy's mouth lets him down. Though Ricky has took fans for mugs lately, paying to watch pish, and smiling at end after not hurting guy once in 12 rounds, and not having a go at winning fight

    I think after a 12 week training camp, and on back of fact he's been in gym for 18 months he would deal with Ricky who looks finished.

    What are we basing this sudden Harrison confidence on ? Hes done absolutely nothing in over 8 years, hes had 3 fights since hes been back, 2 of them against guys who would probably lose to the guys Harrison stands outside an offsales with. So in 8 years hes had 1 credible challenge at lightweight AGAINST a super featherweight and he lost, it wasn't even close. Seriously get off Harrisons dick and move on.

    I see the results of twitter yesterday got this fight mentioned in the evening time,morrison shooting it down ...getting the publicity though, folk are sitting up and taking notice which is all that is needed to start with.

    That's all it will ever get to print, please think logically It would be very unlikely that the board would even sanction the fight, you say Ricky got beat by Crawford yes fair and square but Scott lost to Liam Walsh and at the time I remember saying to you walsh's style would be to much for Scott at that stage well imagine what Ricky would do:patsch
    The one thing your forgetting is Scott hasn't a licence becauseScott never produced the relevant paperwork yet everyone else gets the blame,now that sound familiar

    The fight with walsh was close. There was even people suggesting that harrison had sneeked it. Each to their own in terms of scoring though.

    No one would get an easy win off harrison, there is is easier fights out there for Ricky and that's why he'll pick one, why take the chance now against a fierce body puncher like harrison. Ricky is not known for taking risky fights, the best thing he could do is get another couple of pay days, then rap it with a bit of doh in the bank and his health.
