LIVERPOOL, United Kingdom – Former Olympic champion Audley Harrison’s latest bid for a meaningful performance in the heavyweight ring ended in a humiliating 82-second flattening on Saturday.

Harrison, now 40, was knocked out by David Price in the first round as the winner retained his British and Commonwealth titles.

It was Sydney Olympic gold medallist Harrison’s sixth professional loss, coming two years after he was knocked out in the second round in Manchester by David Haye.
