    Audley, brain-damaged and bankrupt by 2015. Who'd of thought that in 2000.

    He did take HUGE shots mind from HUGE punchers in 19st Danny Williams, Deontay Wilder, David Haye, David Price, and of course the Sprott KTFO shot, etc. Terrible reflexes.

    Meh, he returned and faced Price and Wilder, no doubt the shots he took there have messed him up as well as the fight with Sprott. A cautionary tale of continuing to fight with nothing left, pride is not as important as health. Despite his delusions and the BBC farce, he decided to go it alone and in the end was screwed over anyway.
    It could have all been avoided had he been better managed, and knew when to throw in the towel, he could have made a good coach, a teacher, a poet, but his days were done as a boxer after the Haye farce.

    Very honest words from him in his statement. Not a fan of his as a boxer but I wish him all the best in retirement.

    As poker, the card game, is obviously a form of gambling....what other kind of 'poker' was Audley doing that would precipitate bankruptcy? :lol:
