"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.....

SRL been on the Contender series to long, He is starting to think average fighters are greats.
