BOXING: Wrist injury blamed for setback

Audley Harrison`s scheduled return to the ring next weekend has been postponed after the former Olympic champion injured his wrist.

Sunday, 23 September 2007

The 35-year-old was due to appear on the undercard of Clinton Woods` IBF light-heavyweight defence against Julio Gonzalez at Sheffield`s Hallam FM Arena on Saturday - but the bout is now off because of the injury sustained in a car crash in Florida.


Harrison has not fought since his third-round knockout by Michael Sprott in February.
