After an intense duel at the ceremonial weigh-in, the more experienced Harrison suggested unmasking Tszyu when it came time for a fight.
“Have you ever seen a rottweiler bite a chihuahua? It’s just a different breed of dog,” Harrison said.
“I think you’ve all seen your dog bite all the other Chihuahuas.
“He hasn’t met a Rottweiler yet. Until you all see that, you haven’t seen the real fighter.”
