Dominick Guinn and Island’s Martin Rogan will be wanting a piece of Harrison after he’s done with Vitali.

Good stuff, Slappy. :bow:

Can't wait to see Rogie back in the ring. It will be interesting to see what path he takes if he wants to get to a EBU shot. A Chisora fight would be a cracker. Rogan - Barrett would be a good fight for this year aswell or does Rogie have to fight an eliminator for that opportunity? :P

I would love to see Rogie come back and destroy Chisora but obviously he needs a warm up fight before going for a title.

Rogan would be a good test for Fury as well.

He needs at least two tune up fights (in a close timespan) before facing anyone of any decency in my opinion. He needs to shake off any rust and get back to winning ways.

Its bad when Mesi is the best in the picture.

McBride - Barrett - Fury - Chisora - Haye!

In that order please! ;)

Now Rogan v Haye really would be Rocky v Apollo Creed eh!

Harrison is European champ, has beef with Haye and is a name known across the globe. None of this applies to Rogan.

Surely you knew all this?

i would love to see sosnowski v rogan. what a fight that could be. sosnowski really impressed me with his attitude, fitness and game plan vs vitali. he was outgunned but he put to shame other challengers and perhaps showed a more overtly world class fighter could approach vitali.

I think Rogan at the top of his form would give Haye a tough night, Hayes durability and stamina is still questionable. Having said that I think Martin may be at the point where all his tough fights ahve taken a toll, (plus his age), and I just dont see him recapturing the edge he had when he was beating Harrison and winning the British title...

Rogan-Fury

I honestly believe Rogan would win it, Fury really struggled under McDermotts pressure and Rogan is a far stronger and better pressure fighter. I think Rogan could make him crumble late on with his relentless style. Fury probably would get the early rounds but the constant pressure for Rogan would wear him down and take him out late imo

Rogan wasn't relentless against Sexton.

He didnt look good there, but if the Rogan who fought Williams or Skelton i really think he would beat Fury

i dunno, given that roga only just beat dolan, a domestic nearly man at both heavyweight (prize fighter runner up) and cruiserweight.

david haye and david dolan are like chalk and cheese. but maybe rogan could get some decent shots off in a small ring during a 3 rounder.
