28 October 2008 – by Mark Doyle

Audley Harrison’s heavyweight clash with Martin Rogan will go ahead on December 6 as planned.

It was believed that Derek Chisora was set to fill in for A-Force on the London ExCeL bill, but Sports Network have confirmed that Harrison has not withdrawn from his proposed meeting with Rogan, the inaugural Prizefighter winner.

Audley Harrison will definitely fight Martin Rogan at Londons ExCeL Arena, read a statement issued by Frank Warren’s promotional company.

It was also confirmed that Chisora will be in action on the same night, although his opponent has yet to be revealed.

Harrison and Rogan had originally been scheduled to meet up July but that bout was scrapped due to a television scheduling issue.

The match-up was rearranged for Manchester in September but Rogan was forced to withdraw because of injury.
