On the eve of their world title bout, Tony Harrison acknowledged he can see the dog Tim Tszyu warned was inside him. It’s just the breed that might be a point of contention.
“You ever seen a rottweiler bite a chihuahua?” the American asked reporters after both he and Tszyu made weight for Sunday’s fight for the World Boxing Organisation super-welterweight interim belt.“It’s just a different kind of dog. The dog that you’ve seen in Tim ... I think y’all been seeing your dog bite on other chihuahuas. But he ain’t been in front of a rottweiler.
They both tipped the scales on Saturday at practically the same weight – Tszyu at 69.68 kilograms, Harrison at 69.62 kilograms – and said essentially the same things, but went about their business in very different ways. “I’m looking at his eyes, he was shaking. He’s been shaking every day, all the way up until today. He’s nervous. It’s been dawning on him. It’s just nerves. I can see nerves in him.”“Man, that’s bullshit,” he said. “He’s fought on the biggest stages of them all, but I think he hasn’t done this before – this type of weigh-in, this type of media. This is next-level stuff.
“They keep counting me out. I don’t understand why. I’m from Detroit. How the f--- you keep counting us out?
