Audley Harrison To Vacate Title

never mind those guys he hasn't even taken on the best british or european boxers yet, his career has moved at a snail's pace so far, and it shows no sign of getting faster any time soon That's true but if we take Harrison at his word, he cares about winning a major world title. He probably figures that taking on the best in Britain and Europe is a less direct route - and probably a more risky one. His manager said yesterday that his next opponent is going to be announced very soon - I just hope it's not a fight against a bum which he justifies as a necessity to work off the ring rust he's got from a year out.

He has the potential to be the best in the division. Surely you dont doubt his intentions? :rolleyes:

He needs to get in with someone like Whitaker, Nobles, Donald or even maybe the winner of Brock-McCline to raise his profile and move closer to a shot at a genuine title. I have the same feelin I always get with Harrison, that any progress is going to be made a lot more slowly than it needs to be never mind those guys he hasn't even taken on the best british or european boxers yet, his career has moved at a snail's pace so far, and it shows no sign of getting faster any time soon

I understand why people hate Harrison, but to be fair he has been injured for almost a year, and his progress has been hindered with injury before then. Harrison is at the stage where he needs to be fighting every other month.

I hate harrison, he claims all this stuff about being world champ, then backs it up with only a few fights every year against no bodies. I won`t pay attention any more and i hope he loses!
