Below is a UK News Headline from yesterday. I've heard nothing about Harrison at the Post-Fight, maybe he was afraid to open his mouth around those mexican fans. Or, maybe he changed his mind after realizing the Barrera hasn't gotten old?
UK HEADLINE - Scott Harrison in Vegas to Challenge Winner of Barrera - Morales
WBO Featherweight Champion Scott Harrison is in Las Vegas for this weekend's epic third match between Mexican warriors Marco Antonio Barrera and arch nemesis Erik "El Terrible" Morales at the MGM Grand. Harrison has traveled from Scotland with trainer Peter Harrison and Frank Maloney, and plans on calling out the winner of this much anticipated third installment of one of the best fights in the last twenty five years. "Scott Harrison believes, as I do, that he has the tools to beat either Erik Morales or Marco Antonio Barrera," said Maloney. "Scott would obviously have to step up in weight to face the winner but he's quite happy to do so. Scott has always been a very, very big featherweight and is unbelievably strong for the weight so it won't be a problem at all to go up to super feather. While we're in Vegas we'll ....... plan on proving that Scott Harrison is the world's best fighter at 126 or 130lbs."
That's mostly the case with fighters outside the state. Look at your man PacMan for example, he was fighting mostly inside the Philippines before Ledwaba.
Exactly, and his stock rose bigtime only when he fought outside, especially in the U.S. Scott needs to showcase his wares outside his comfort zone. I know he has something inside that needs to be seen by the rest of the world.
See, this is why Scott is unable to build his image internationally. He almost always fights at home...

I'm sure its gonna be in Scott's home turf, like 95% of all of his fights. :rolleyes:

Harrisons a quality fighter, he's proved he's good enough to share a ring with Barrera/Morales so i dont see a big problem.
I doubt Harrison will ever be a great fighter but its time for him to step into the big league and give it a shot.
