Harrison, 34, was dismal in dropping points decisions to fellow Londoner Danny Williams last December and American Dominick Guinn last month.

But Leonard told BBC Radio Five Live: "There's nobody in the heavyweight division. If Audley stays serious and focused, he can make a difference.

"But if he doesn't win his next fight impressively, he should get a new job."

Harrison switches to new trainer

Last week, Harrison announced he has teamed up with highly-respected American trainer Buddy McGirt in a bid to revitalise his ailing career.

And the 2000 Olympic super heavyweight champion said he was not considering retirement in the wake of back-to-back defeats.

"When I first saw Audley Harrison, I thought 'here's a top prospect for the heavyweight division'," said Leonard, a five-weight world champion.

"He has the whole package - he's charismatic, he's big, he's strong. But he needs to start being a fighter and not a talker."





no way harrison manages to win a belt....not a chance, too old with flaws that will take time to iron out if ever at all.....

u have to understand ray has a very positive "anyone can do it" attitude ..what i saw him say was .....he just said "if he doesnt look good in his next fight he should quit ...and that he at one time thought he was champion material

and that now that the heavyweight division sucks he can "make a difference"
ray would say you or me could make a difference lol

F**k SRL! He's a crackhead who has lost his mind. And you didn't beat Hagler punk!
