    Too true...

    He should have killed the chrachter off after the Haye fight but his ego got the best of him.

    You have a soft spot for Audley, a tarnish on British boxing, yet slate Cotto? Unbelievable.

    There is a difference between being a one trick pony who is effective, to one that isn't, but one that still continues to employ the same strategy.

    There probably will be a spells where by they wait on each other, as Haye is a counter puncher, and Wlad a cautious tentative fighter who likes to calculate everything he does, but the key is, both will be trying to do something productive in that period. You wont reduce someone like Wladimir to one jab, cause he isn't scared to pull the trigger when he knows he HAS to, in order to maintain his long range.

    Chris Byrd is way more skilled than Haye, a much better fighter from in the pocket, yet he eat right hands when he stepped into mid range trying to find a way to slip inside Wlad's leads.


    Haye didn't do anything particularly special to take away Harrison's jab imo, it just come down to the fact that Audley wont do anything till you try to front door him, then he will try his sit back left hand, therefore there is no jab to fend off on the way in, so provided you look to step up, look for a spot to step off the line, you will eventually be able to mount an attack provided you can create an angle to punch off.

    Why do you think Coleman Barrett outworked Harrison? cause Harrison was looking for one punch, his sit back left hand, I mean fair play Harrison eventually turned it around, but the reason he was losing the fight was because he was looking for that punch, only whilst he was waiting, he was getting outworked.

    Even if Audley Harrison just retires after winning, European/British/Commonwealth Titles.

    I would be happy with that.

    I will support Audley Harrison if he wants to go on, but i think he's fighting for something besides "The World Title". I think he wants to get some respect back, respect which he lost along time ago off the critics. In a way i think thats why he carrys on these days, and rightly so.

    Everyman wants to be respected.

    Gooners i will get back to you in a minute.
