Ive never rated Harrison, hes always been crap.

Just like that Prince Nassem, always said he was crap, and where is he now.

Yeah naseem was really crap having the WBO championship and all. He was so crap he was only beat and went 12 rounds with the legend that is Marco Antonio Barrera.

Also held the IBF featherweight title

Also held the WBC featherweight title for one day before politics took over.

Also beat and KO'd pretty much every fighter he faced except for one great talent in MAB!

I have no idea why people write naseem off. Sure he is past it now, but people only jumped on his case once he lost a fight with MAB and even then he lost on points, he never got KO'd. pound for pound he was an amazing fighter.

Audely "Waste of space" Harrison.

Still claiming that he will be the world champ one day - world chump maybe!

Never mind, at least we have the masterful Danny Williams to rip through the HW division and spark everyone out.

As for Teofilo Stevenson, it would be interesting to have known whether he would have been a great in the professional world as he won 3 straight Olympic golds, but never went beyond the amateur ranks.

I reckon that he would have been a great, potentially as good as Ali was although possibly less likely to make a mark in terms of world influence as I don't think he was such an extroverted personality. Ali rated him as his equal anyway and the two men were(maybe still are) great friends but as I think Teofilo himself said "What could the professional ranks offer to compare with the love of my countrymen?" to explain why he would never turn professional.

Slightly off-topic did you hear that Ali has sold off rights to his name and likeness? Story here.

I did, thanks for the link though. Cheap at half the price. The man is my ultimate hero.
