    Where is he now??? I watched a doc about him last year or so with him training for a comeback but then went to jail in Spain. Is he still in jail??? Can't find anything on him.

    No idea.

    What a waste though, he was a level above most of our current fighters, would be in the Froch,Haye,Khan bracket if he'd a level head like Ricky Burns who i like but isnt in Scott's class.

    He's currently languishing in a Spanish jail, trying to get a transfer to Barlinnie.

    Sure he was up for parole not so long ago, but it didn't come off.

    Hard as coffin nails. But just couldn't deal with his mental health issues and made some real daft choices.

    That documentary the OP mentioned is a real sad watch.

    Still in spanish jail, pops up in our papers for all the wrong reasons such as fighting with guards etc, met the guy before and he was a *****, he deserves everything he gets, could have been a british ATG though.

    yes i agree on this one lol

    tell you what , there numerous stories up here in glasgow that harrison when out on the **** used the old "do you know who i am " crap on people"

    he did do it to a 15 st rugby player and got a severe battering lol , he had a court case in which he arrived at court with a hoodie to cover his bruises but in court they were clearly visable

    Is he still in jail or not, some say he is, some say he ain't...:think

    If the man has mental health problems then he really needs help, that's is a living nightmare...:-(

    Very true...:yep

    He was big at the weight in a similar way that Eubank was big at the weight...:yep

    For the short term okay if the conditioning is right, horrendous for the long term benefit...:yep

    Scott had issues living in the goldfish bowl of Glasgow, similar to many old firm footballers.
    He should have relocated to the US is he was 100% career focused.

    Tremendous fighter, and in his earlier days a tremendous boxer too.
    Boxed Harris Patersons head off, and was it boom boom Johnson too?
    The beating he dished out to McCulloch was one of the worst/best Ive seen live

    Trained liked a beast in camp, just didnt learn from mistakes outside the ring.
