Knock Out

Posted: Wed, Jun 27, 07, 9:39 AM

Audley Harrison is a boxer from Las Vegas.  He may be handling the chips well lately, but he has made it clear that he is a boxer first and foremost.  He is currently training for his next big fight in September, which is why he was a few minutes late to the final table.  But he has a small exhibition warm up fight in July, where he must choose his own opponent. 

After hearing this, Eugene Todd spoke up and volunteered.  If the money is right, Todd has no problem stepping in the ring with the former title contender.  "I just need three hours to train," said Todd.  As tough as a guy from New York is, there is no doubt in my mind that Harrison would make Todd immediately regret his decision.
