    you sure about that? The Klitsckos are more well known than you think.

    Most people would go "oh those big russian geezers" thats still better than "that twat audley harrison"

    Im sure about the people I know over here in Northern Ireland. Maybe its a bit different over in England. They know about UFC and a few boxers.

    There are a fair few fans of boxing over here aswell though who know whats what.

    Thats true if things pan out that way. I cant see that happening though. Hopefully they do.

    The Klitsckos are more well known by the general sports fan than any UFC fighter.

    It makes sense for Haye to fight Harrison, the Klitschko's will still be there after this pretty straight forward fight, and he has £11 million in his sky rocket. If he fights a Klitschko and loses his money and marketing value drops considerably.

    Although i can't wait for the big fights either.

    What age are you? Could be an age thing. Among people under 25 here theres no way thats true.

    24. If you know who Bisping and Lesner are you will know who the Klitsckos are. If you know who

    UFC has been tucked away on ESPN and Setanta. Its not getting mega viewing figures. Like boxing it has a hardcore fan base, but no stand out names.

    Everyone knows Haye and Khan. The general sports fan knows Mayweather, Pacquiao and the big russian brothers the Klitsckos.

    Everyone here knows who Lesnar is but not many know who the Klits are.

    Maybe we just know different crowds. Thats just the way I see it.

    Thats why I wanted Haye smashed.

    Greedy man - thinks this is a easy fight for easy money.

    I hope Harrison destroys his career.

    i'm a massive boxing and mma fan.just like combat sports and nothing else like footy or whatever.all my mates think i'm weird into this "cagefighting" stuff and wouldn't know their arsehole from their earhole when watching it.to them it's just a very vicious fringe activity.they couldn't name one mma fighter between them.
    they all know who harrison, haye and the klitschkos are.

    i'm 35 by the way

    i don't really have a problem with him making a few extra million before the inevitable hiding he is going to have to take.what irks me is the constant shite talking and lying about fighting the klits.vitali and wlad carry themselves in a manner befitting the heavyweight champion of the world.

    Thats why I hope after all this bull**** of the last 2 years this guy dosent even get the chance to fight the Klits.

    It be more embarrassing for him to lose to Audely than Wlad.

    I hope Audely destroys Hayes career...............its a horrible thing to say - but Haye deserves a lesson taught to him -- he has taken this fight for all the selfish greedy reasons and avoided the real challneges out there after saying he was such a risk taker. Thats why I hope this seemingly low risk fight backfires on him badly. Then he can just **** off and be a straight to DVD movie star or whatever he wants to be. Instead of just hanging around fighting once every 6 months - and never any nearer to fight the Klits.
