    Who is Harry Simon?

    He is undefeated and has some slight names on his record. He is a middleweight. He beat Cherifi and Kranjc, and Rodney Jones (who beat Antonio Margarito way back when).

    So...who the hell is this guy and how good is he?

      Harry Simon either beat Winky Wright or was beaten on a split decision a few years back now, very good fighter but he killed someone in a car crash & had some injuries plus I think he was charged with the death of the person but i'm not sure of his current situation.

            Harry Simon was once the WBO middleweight champion and was once considered a threat in the middleweight division. He unfortunatly couldn't stay out of trouble. He has had several car wrecks while drinking and driving in his last one he killed the person he hit. I remember Simon was supposed to be Tito's comeback fight after the Hopkins lost but for whatever reason the fight didn't go through.

                Harry Simon was legit. I thought he was Hopkins only real threat, but like its been said he just couldn't stay out of trouble.

                Owns wins over Winky Wright, Wayne Alexander and Hassine Cherifi all used to be very solid guy's at the time.

                He most likely going to prison for manslaughter(He killed the entire family in the other car). This is his second time being in a serious accident after drinking

                  I recently watched the Winky vs. Harry Simon fight & it was close fight that could've went either way. Winky ran out of gas in that fight toward the end though. Simon hit him pretty hard in that fight.
