    It's absolutely ****ing light years away from being anywhere near as big as the Lewis/Bruno fight.

    Lewis Bruno was mainstream. Haye Harrison is not a big fight in the uk.

    Who is the girl in your avtar? To answer your question absolutely not. Bruno and Lewis were bonified world class HW who had both fought at a very high level and of course much more well known than A force or Haye.

    The other major difference is that Bruno was well loved by the British public and could inspire the imagination of the general public.

    It's about the same level as Bruno v Bugner.

    Bruno was actually beating the **** out of Lewis until he hurt Lewis, got careless and ran into a desperation left hook from Lennox.................No way, both were world class guy's. Haye isn't even Bruno's level as a heavy and Audley?? Well I hope Audley KOes the little nitwit *****.

    You've got to bear in mind that most of the TV coverage about this fight (including the press conference and most of the stuff that's up on youtube) is being generated by the very same network that is screening the fight itself on PPV. They're not going to say, "This stinks; now give us your money".

    The reaction elsewhere has been 'cautious'.

    no, no way.
    everyone over here wanted to see bruno-lewis. the public wanted it.
    nobody was demanding to see haye in with harrison.
    but i do think as the fight gets closer, people will get caught up in it.

    This fight isn't big in anyway.

    The only thing going for it is the fact they've attached Pac-Margarito to the PPV. So it's going to do well in terms of buys.

    Sky are going to hype the **** out of it, make it look like Audley is some God who potentially could rule the world.

    Just like ' David vs Goliath ' and his fight against Ruiz, they always seem to make some angle that makes the casuals hype it.
