Tyson Fury dismisses Audley Harrison's challenge

Tyson Fury has dismissed former Olympian Audley Harrison's challenge to a fight next year.

The British and Commonwealth champion, who is scheduled to defend his titles against Canadian Neven Pajkic this weekend, has said that fighting Harrison would be backwards step.

Instead, the 23-year-old is targeting one of the Klitchko brothers.

"Leave him to the dogs," Fury said, regarding Harrison.

"I'm hoping to get a world-title shot. I don't want to go backwards, I'm on my way to the top and I'm past all these people now.

"I want this fight, then maybe another one, and then definitely a Klitschko."

The Brit has a near two-stone advantage over Pajkic ahead of their Saturday night showdown in Manchester.
