    That's debatable. Dunn came to fight. The jury would be out on whether Audley would.

    I don't think that anybody is much better than 50/50 against him.

    Nor I.. If we were to assemble a tournament of lets say 30 of the very best heavyweights of the past 115 years, there's a possibilty he might drop a loss to one or two of them for stylistic reasons, but when it comes to favoring anyone, I just don't think I can.

    I'm going to be serious for a moment,Frank. Harrison annoyed me intensely. Like many,I was so hopeful after the Sydney Olympics. So much potential,but it all came to nothing.
