    There also aren't too many 6'6 Heavyweight southpaws of a reasonable standard for Price to spar against to replicate A-Force's style apart from Tony Thompson.

    And I'm not sure he'd be up for sparring on Maloney's wages just weeks after a Klitshcko world title fight.

    Whereas Audley can find any number of big orhodox fighters to spar with, they seem to be the norm these days. Deontay Wilder perhaps as they are both US based ...

    Its not a good fight for me as Price will blow him away inside 3 rounds but if he is aiming for a Lonsdale belt for keeps then i can understand why he's going for this.

    I give Audley a chance in this fight.

    Good point about the sparring ^^^

    Wilder, Vitali, Helenius, Ustinov, Dimitrenko, Charr, even Fury!

    Fear for Harrison big time here, but I will be supporting him like a loyal fan should.

    Price is a fearsome fighter.

    Primadona Kool here you disappoint me. Lets look at the facts. Roberto Camemarelle has always been known as Pricey Baby's nemesis, yet Roberto Camemarelle has always been known as the black Audley Harrison. Audley Harrison is by far the best opponent Pricey Baby has faced. Audley Harrison can KO the green yet cocky Pricey Baby. Audley Harrison is very much a live underdog.

    Sydney Audley vs China Camemarelle. Audley wins. Gentlemen, this is something we all most bare in mind while sizing up this fight.

    Can Harrison even stand up straight at this point?

    This.

    Harrison will go in there and not even throw punches. He will stick the right hand out in front of him and paw at the air a bit. Price will land a big right early and it will be wrapped up before the third round. **** fight but nice way to get Price more exposure to the general public.

    Always felt sorry for Audley, you don't fluke Olympic Golds but he seems to lack heart. I feel sorry for Price too, he is much more technically accomplished than Fury yet seems to be left behind in his wake. Kinda want both of them to do well but I know a loss will be very damaging to Price's aspirations and completely final in killing off Harrison career. Price wins.

    Remember in Star Wars when Obi Wan is teaching his apprentice Luke Skywalker. He says, "Your eyes can deceive you. Don’t trust them". Well that is the same with that fight.

    I urge the Harrison fans to ignore their emotions. Harrison is a has been, who never was. Pretty much a cancer on the sport. I hate to put it in those terms, but one has to be cruel to be kind.

    lighten up lads, big Audley is usually good for a laugh at the very least, 80/20 fight in prices favour, but whoever loses is getting brutally ko'd

    i'll watch
