    I'm a proud scot as you know, but Scott wouldnt have beaten Hamed, Hamed was too sharp and unorthodox, wouldnt have stood around for Scott Harrsion to hit

    True, but there are a lot of belts, a lot of great fights, a lot of former and future champs, a lot of very good fighters and one probable HoF-er in Boom Boom Johnson. There is also the freaky power and extraordinary style and five year domination of a marquee division.

    Hamed was a great fighter, I think the arguments against him are weak and driven more by dislike of the man than an objective assessment of the fighter.

    Mr Warren doesn't con me, I assure you...

    however, let's look, cos I think the following nine is a very solid, if not fabulous list - for consistency of opponentover five years, better than most world champs:

    Potential Hof-er/unification
    Johnson

    Unifications
    Soto
    Vazquez (in effect, as he was WBA champ then stripped when fighting Hamed)

    First titlist
    Robinson

    Top fighters (genuine world class, in that they would be a handful for anyone in and around the weight, good future and/or former champs)
    Kelley
    McCullough
    Medina
    Bungu
    Ingle

    Realistically right now no one.

    But in a years time if Khan can prove he is the best fighter in the 140 division (beating Bradley and others) and Floyd is still around then why not? Khan is only going to improve Floyd will be hitting 33yr. Speed can upset Floyd as Zab showed this for a few rounds but then he gased out, Khan ant gasing for ****.

    The fight would be massive here in U.K and would generate big money.

    Your posts are so hypocritical its ridiculous.... firstly Uncle Frank also promoted Harrison, secondly nearly all of Harrisons decent wins came against guys Hamed had already decimated. Super Bantams..... :thumbsup

    Thirdly Hamed was actually a Super Bantam turned burger mucher .... Harrison was a light welter turned celery eater so you can hardly count Hameds size as a big plus in his victories.... Barrera- a super bantam, dwarfed him.

    Fourthly your points are ridiculous and ill thought out. Have a think, come back to me.
