    Great fight, Tszyu likes to be the agressor and Harrison fights well moving backwards and counterpunching.

    I really dislike Tszyu's slow plodding movement though , he just seems to walk in without ringing the door bell.

    Interesting. I lean Super Bad if he can 'put it all together' - but that's no given with him.

    Same here, his style could work on top level only if he has iron chin ( never really tested ) and stamina ( never had 12 round fight ).

    Harrison is not a risk free matchup for Tim by any means.

    I was really surprised by his wide hooks during the Hogan fight, they clearly pointed towards some stamina issues.

    Harrison is a really good litmus test, the result of the fight will give us the verdict on Tszyu.

    Real test for Tyszu, if Harrison is on his A game i think he exposes Timmy Tyszu.

    Frankly I'm surprised that Tyszu took this fight, as for Harrison a win will get him right back in the spotlight. As other's have already said if Harrison is ready I think he can take this. I'm anxious to see what the odds will be

    Huge step up. Let's see if Tszyu is ready for the big stage!

    Harrison is a very tough match up for anyone.
    Harrison even seems to have improved a bit from his earlier defeats his self belief is pretty amazing.
    Will be a very good scalp it Tszyu can win

    Harrison is a very talented but he is chinny. Timmeh is gonna KO him. However it is a real good test for Tszyu.

    I like Harrison but his performance against Perrella was worryingly half-arsed. I also see from social media that he spends a lot of his time at his gym training other people now. Has he settled into the role of elder statesman/gatekeeper?

    I actually prefer this fight for Tim rather than Smith or Kurbanov who Tim seemed to be targetting after the fight. Harrison is more talented than both of those fighters but his chin is weaker. Against Smith or Kurbanov, they would stand up to Tims power and they stay strong through the 12 rounds. Against Harrison, Tim could learn a lot, he could very well be down on the cards but probably stop Harrison mid to late rounds.

    It is a good step up for Tszyu I think it will be competitive for 5 rounds before Tszyu's right hand finds Harrisons chin and takes him out.
