That should be a good fight. Rogan is a little past his best, but he's hard as nails and throws a lot of punches. Would be a good fight and hard night's work for Fury.

It'd be a better fight than Harrison, but Harrison is a bigger name and I think that's what they'll go with.

If Rogan is still near his best then this will be a tough fight for Fury. Against McD he struggled with McD's aggression and combination punching, Chisora had his best success when he was aggressive throwing in combinations and this Is what Rogie does best, he'll easily take Fury's best shot and walk threw it throwing big combinations. Tough fight for both men but I see Rogan getting a very tough, rough decision

Agree Sexton kept Rogan well at bay with the jab and Fury will do the same with his height and reach difference.

At least audley is taller so would get a bit nearer to fury.
Styles make fights and Harrison could possibly have his number imo.
Is he looking at a height chart and hand picking.

Rogans way past his best, fury by stoppage

I agree Jane. I think that's the route they'll go down. I'd like to see Fury fight Rahman or Botha or Grant. He could learn a lot from those guys, but hey, that's just me.

Grant would be a very risky match up for Fury. Could easily see him losing such a fight.
Rogan is spent and an easy night for Tyson. He will cruise to a lop sided decision in that one.
Get Price in there with him.

Harrison is still a name that sells to the general public though. they know who he is, they know he's the Olympic gold medallist turned clown and I think there is still some intrigue/interest in him, even if it is to see him constantly fail.

And i agree, Rogan was looking pretty shot in his last few fights and I think Fury will stop him, even with his lack of big KO power, i think he has enough to stop an old Rogan.

Rogan is past it for me, this fight should not happen. Easy defense against Harrison next before fighting for the European. I think Fury will avoid fighting Price as thats a risky fight at the minute.

Fury should outpoint Rogan but you know Rogan would make a fight of it.

Fury will win this easily, clever from him staying away from Price though

Eh? Price is fighting McDermott in November, Fury couldn't fight him next if he wanted to.

Price is very good but Fury has now done some tough 12 round fights.
He's got more seasoning all ready but Price is a bad style match up for him, as is Audley.
I'd go Rogan or Sprott next.

My thoughts exactly. If Price - McDermott is November, then Fury will likely have had another fight by then and will be looking at bigger things.

If you were the commissioning editor of Channel 5 would you be willing to risk Harrison not turning up yet again?

It's a tough one. I would imagine there are still plenty of people that would like to watch Harrison get knocked out. Whether or not he comes to fight is another thing.
Fury would need to fight someone that brings something to the party. I can't see them putting Fury - Sexton on or even Fury - Rogan.

If you're CHannel 5 and you get chance to have Fury v Harrison or Fury v virtually anyone else.....you go for Harrison. They'd get 3-4 million for that fight if Chisora peaked at 2.9million.
Good, good business.

I do get your point I just hate the idea of Harrison turning it into another televised farce (like the Haye fight or Williams I) particularly if they are only going to show one fight.
It's difficult because Fury is not yet at the stage of his career were every opponent can be a headline name.
