Harrison pulls out of title fight

WBO featherweight champion Scott Harrison has withdrawn from his title defence on Saturday and vacated his title, his father Peter says.
The Scottish fighter was due to fight Nicky Cook in the WBO featherweight title defence in London.

More soon.

But if Harrison fails to fight Cook, the WBO will strip him of his belt and looks almost certain to hand it to Mexico’s interim champion Juan Manuel Marquez.

Poor Cook,he's lost out bigtime

Doubt that Cook can last the 12 with JMM

That'll be his next fight though wont it?

[smashup]

Yeah almost deffo

Good for for him.

Its nice to see a man from the far east get on America Tele

Fucking disgrace all of them. I could have told them a couple of weeks ago that he wasnt ready to fight and saved them hundreds in consultancy fees.

Really feel for Cook. No one deserves to be handed a title on a silver platter but you'd rather try and take it from Harrison than Marquez.

Just read that Harrison has been awol for a couple of days. Wonder what he's been up to?
