 Harrison is determined to run his career his own way |
Audley Harrison has "agreed in principle" to face an, as yet un-named, opponent in America on 13 November. Harrison blamed irreconcilable differences between A-force promotions and Frank Warren for the abandonment of his fight against Matt Skelton.
"I am extremely disappointed that I will not be fighting Matt Skelton in October," he said.
"But the disrespect Frank has shown me, and his failure to back up verbal promises means I am forced to move on."
Harrison's bout across the Atlantic will be broadcast by CSI Sports on a pay-per-view basis.
The fight was apparently presented to Harrison before negotiations started for the Skelton fight on the understanding it would only happen if the Skelton fight did not.
"I truly believed Frank would offer me an honest deal this time around," added Harrison.
"Unfortunately, this is not the case and now, I am glad I kept my options open with 13 November.
"Frank is obviously losing his touch for making the big fights happen and he should stop blaming everyone else and figure out what he's done wrong."
