    It would be pretty big in the UK and it would prepare Haye well for an opponent of Klitschko's size. Harrison seems like a good fighter for Haye to box, to gain confidence against the big guys with higher ratings.

    Could be a pretty exciting fight, too.

    Haye would blast him out real quick.

    Personally I think it would be a farce given Harrison's lack of activity. A much better fight for Haye would be the fight, that was previously talked about, against Hasim Rahman.

    I don't see any merit for this fight to be made,Harrison is as expected all mouth and hype and Haye would'nt get any kudos out of beating a fraud..................

    Hence why I said "previously talked about". I think there were money issues last time but if these could be ironed out it would make sense as a fight for Haye given Rahman is a former champion & has fought at a high level for sometime now.

    True, but i'd be a "safe" fight for Haye if you will, to gain some confidence and experience against the big boys.

    I know what your saying lol but I think he's got the confidence and he is an experienced boxer already...I agree with dan... Rahman would be a better fight to take.

    why would Harrison deserve this fight? honestly, I would be disapointed in such a weak competitor for haye. he is 6'3...packs a punch and unified at cruiser weight. he is ready for better comp than harrison.

    A quick, easy knockout over a "name" opponent who poses no real threat. Why shouldn't Haye make that his entry into the HW division?
