Harry Simon making a comeback at 36.
Training in London looking to sign with Frank Warren, would be nice to see him back I think it might be a bit to late to make any real noise but he was a good fighter a few years back.

...and let me guess, he's saying floyd's been ducking him too .

There are at least 5000 "who/how good is Harry Simon" threads knocking about.
Clearly he's missed the boat, but if signing with FW i'm sure he can be maneuvered into a title shot of some sort.

I'm sure the vacant interim intercontinental ordinary WBA title is available.

That's the favourite. And he'll contest it against some obscure Eastern European/African/South American or British prizefighter semi-finalist.

What weight is he coming back at?
Re: Harry Simon making a comeback at 36.
Simon was a good fighter but with his style he cant possibly be what he was. I was ringside for his fight with Alexander and I felt I was in the presence of a true world class performer.
If he was a counter puncher like Hopkins Id welocme a comeback but he relied heavily on pace and workrate - attributes that wold have eroded by now.
Class fighter as the Winky Wright fight will prove but I cant see him making a huge impact now. Hope he proves me wrong.
