god almighty, i'm certainly not Fury's biggest fan at all, but even i admit surely Harrison shouldn't get a chance to box him ....you can forget about him being as tall as fury, same reach etc.......the guy doesn't even throw a punch??

I'd rather Rogan get the chance to fight him, at least he will turn up and have a go.

Oh my god i feel sick at the mention of Fraudly again

When he does throw a punch it's a pretty good one. He knocked Sprott into next week and re-arranged Danny Williams clock. He was shit scared of Haye but I don't think he'd be so scared of Tyson.

Good, good business.

Yeah excellent business, however an important point you're not considering is what if Harrison doesn't show up to fight, which lets face it, is almost a dead cert.

The last thing boxing needs is another no show from Harrison, especially on terrestrial TV.

But Fury is the story, they can keeping pressing ahead with him, Harrison will box Fury well. Fury isn't a puncher. If I were handling Fury, I'd avoid him.

Hope this fight will be in Ireland as an all Irish Heavyweight fight like this, atmosphere wise will take the roof off of at a large venue and will put Irish Boxing back on the map.

I will tell you something we all know,Fury Ent scared,got heart like a lion and hes a rock solid chin...domestically he will be a hard fight for anyone ..on Saturdays performance he will beat Rogan with ease imo .
As for Harrison...please no more life lines,we are sick of seeing him ...and if Fury beat him we would still be saying how shit he is

Irish Heavyweight title on the line.....?

I reckon Tyson has picked him mainly because he can get the Emerald Isle title round his waist too. Is it vacant at the moment?

HBO made the mistake of investing in fighters rather than fights, and it has cost them. Fury vs Harrison would be a bad move, imo. Short term gains for long term losses is a bad idea. Get Rogan in there and then you keep people interested.

I am pretty sure i saw Rogan at the Chisora fight sat with the Fury fans cheering away. He even wandered down ringside to scream encouragement, unless he has a lookalike.

Someone mentioned he was there as a sub in case of a pull out.

He was there on the front row. Saw him in the foyet too, looked very trim.

You're a well respected poster Adam, you don't need to prove anything. Just tell us who you think would win.

Fury, rogan at his best managed to out hustle harrison but struggled at times with his reach. fury has a longer reach

i can see fury out doing rogan same as sexton did.

I never want Harrison in a British ring again and actually I think the general public want a title fight with a raucious crowd where they will see an actual competitve fight rather than a fight against a former good Olympic champion who fell over in a pay day in his last British heavyweight "contest".

The general public may not watch many fights but most do know when a fight will be competitive.

Rogan all the way for me with a competitive but one sided points win or late stoppage by Fury. Rogan has done brilliantly with what he has but he's too old to seriously have better than a puunchers chance against Fury.
