Heavyweight Audley Harrison has decided to continue boxing despite his heavy defeat by David Haye in the world-***le fight in Manchester on 13 November.

The 39-year-old was strongly criticised after being stopped in the third round having thrown only one punch.

"After spending some time away reflecting on the fight and outcome, I have made the decision to continue my journey in boxing," he said.

Harrison added that he believed the referee ended the fight prematurely.

The British Boxing Board of Control may yet decide to withhold part of of Harrison's purse after his lack of aggression against Haye in the MEN Arena.
