    Well lets get a few things straight, I went to Vegas because it was a major ambition of mine to go for a big fight. When I 1st came to this site I said my ambition was to go over to support Harrison if he got a career defining fight but unfortunately we know how that has turned out. My point being I went for the occasion not for Hatton. It's something I'll remember for the rest of my days, the build up to it in Vegas and in the MGM on fight night was unbelievable. I also met Ponce De Leon and was chuffed as ****. So it wasn't a complete waste of money like you said it was in another thread just after the fight.

    On the list I personally would have Harrison bottom 3 at best, I reckon along with yourself I'm Harrison's biggest fan on these boards. The very 1st fight I went to was when he won the title and I went to everyfight after that except the Michael Brodie fight. I just don't think he has the same level of competition as the other names on the list. No I haven't been brainwashed Dunky but it doesn't stop me supporting other fighters in Britain. Just for talking sake if Harrison was fighting Nicky Cook and Arthur went down to support him I don't think all the English people on here would be screaming that Arthur hates everyone from England.

    On the subject of Arthur, I hope he gets the Guzman fight. I would love for it to be in Vegas and would try my best to make it. Do I think he would win? no. I've not seen anything from Arthur that makes me think he has it in him to join the elite. In saying that though he seems the type of guy who rises to the big occasion so it would be a good fight and a lot closer than some people on this forum are suggesting.

    Whoa there Tam83. You said I said to you that you wasted your money:huh Are you sure? & Im not being funny, but If I told you that you wasted your money I must have been pissed, or quoted you by mistake. I know you well here, so I am sure if I said that to you I would remember it? If I quoted you & told you that you wasted your money, then I apologize. However, Im sure I didnt? As far as I remember there were loads of scots here who went over for the fight, I was just probably winding all you jock Hatton lovers up!

    jeez, theres nothing to be sorted here. As for Scotty, I have washed my hands of him. If he fought Arthur tomorrow, I would cheer on amazin Alex.

    Personally I was offended by it, seemed over the top. To be honest can't remember anyone else Scottish who said they were going.

    Well, I have offered an explanation & you have chosen not to accept it for your own reasons, which are of course your own.

    hmm. This is the first time I have properly fell out with someone on a message board, so I dont quite know how to react!

    OK, how about this. I will pretend you said that post to me in your own house, & after standing in shock for a second after your damning words, I say what I just said in my post, & I then walk out of your house, & you slam the door shut behind me, like a deeply offended person would do.

    Then the theme tune from Watership Down will play. & both of us will cry from opposite ends of the door, but your pride wont let you open that door & end the pain. Why? Cos you cast me out. I just hope you feel guilty when you hear that I was run over by a bus due to being delirious with the symptoms of hypothermia a few days after you cast me out from your life.

    I'm perplexed at how anyone dosen't have Bruno at the bottom of their list rather than Harrison. I'm no fan of Scotty (massive underachiever imo) but theres a huge leap in talent between Bruno and the rest.

    Scott Harrison was an overachiever imo. He was an exceptional boxer in his early days considering he was a fighter of limited speed and agility. He had the guts and determination of a Mexican and had a great chin. Take Tszyu and PBF from Hattons record and its no better than Scotts.

    Bruno cant be anywhere but bottom, he was a heavywight and an average one at that.

    Alright Dunky, hows it going?

    Ive not been following the news much lately about Harrison but the last i heard he was making a comeback around March/April time.

    Has something else happened that has turned you against him as i thought you would be sticking by him no matter what.

    Personally I would be rooting for Scotty every day of the week against Arthur!

    Expect Arthur vs Harrison to be Arthurs comeback fight after loosing to Guzman.

    What do all those fighters have in common..............apart from obvious like there boxers and were world champions.
