I think a David Haye/Tyson Fury fight makes much more sense.

CONTINUED FROM ABOVE

5) HEAVYWEIGHT BOXING AND BRITAIN NEEDS IT

Boxing has been through a bunch of **** this past 12 months. The heavyweight divsion in particular is a mess. 3 champions, 2 are brothers and won't fight each other, 1 is a guy who lives in ****ing Cyprus and doesn't want to fight the two brothers, the rest have all been beaten by one of the three other guys....except for Audley Harrison. He is not only big enough to be perceived as a threat, he has that bit of class in and out of the ring which boxing needs. That little bit of confidence to capture crowds as he dazzles them with his super white teeth and gradient smile. That little bit of adversity he has had to overcome, time and time again, to finally get to be in contention for a world title shot.

He also has his fair share of detractors, but he is a name and like him or not people still talk about him, and have done for the past ten years. Audley Harrison is what the heavyweight division needs, and win or lose, his fight with Haye HAS to happen because the scenario after it makes a showdown with the Klitschkos that little bit more appealing, and necessary. If David Haye wins, which mostly British people think he will, he has beaten a big 6 foot 6 18 stone muscular banger who, physique wise, resembles a Klitschko. They won't say he is too small if he beats Harrison (forget Valuev, different ball game entirely). If he does beat Audley, he has absolutely no one else to fight. He just simply must fight a Klitschko brother by the end of the year...

Now, if Audley Harrison wins, it will go down in the record books as the single greatest comeback off all time. Audley Harrison will have beaten a fast, hard punching, younger champion when everyone said he could not do it. The Americans want him to win, because they dislike David Haye because, well because he is David Haye. The British fans in general don't want him to win, because they don't want to have to face up to the fact that they are crabs in a bucket. They want him to fail so they can feel better about themselves. Britian, let's face it, is a **** country. The weather is depressing, the government is oppressing, and the queen is German. The country is in a bad state, and it mirrors heavyweight boxing in a way where it is divided, without a clear outcome at the end of a treacherous period in its time.

We as boxing fans, as a nation, are scared and disillusioned so that we cannot see what is right in front of our very eyes, something that is special and precious and has all the makings to be a classic. We have been thrown stinkers in the past, dealt bad hands in politics, in football, and every, almost, every heavyweight fight has been a stinker for years on end. We don't want to be duped again, get our hopes up for a clash which might never came off, or if it does will stink the joint out, or erode in corruption. A fight between too British heavyweights, one who deserves a title shot more than Danny Williams ever did, more than Leon Spinks ever did, more than Buster Douglas ever did. Between two heavy punchers with less than iron jaws, one who simply has to perform because he cannot live with himself if he doesn't, one who is so driven and determined that against all odds he has come back to get where he is, simply is good for boxing, and good for Great Britain.

IN CLOSING

Destiny is a powerful thing. Somewhere in all of us is the potential to create a reality where we can be happy, healthy, 5 foot 5 or more inches tall, and fulfilled in a non-gay way. We can focus on the negative if we choose, and we do often choose because it is constantly drilled into us that we are not infinite potential, bombarded into us nonstop by TV, by friends, by a gloomy grey sky. Yes, he has lost, he has come back only to lose again, he has been ridiculed, thrown a side, over looked, yet after ten years of this a little spark in Audley Harrison remained, which said quietly "Audley Harrison will become world champion."

My friends, that little spark grew into a flame, which in turn developed into a blazing fire that is going to become an all conquering furnace of desire and greatness. For once in a long time we have a legitimate rivalry, something to celebrate, talk about with friends and strangers alike, a rivalry between a man on top of his game and the man who never quiet achieved what he should have and because of that we resent him, because each of us knows inside that for whatever reason we have not achieved what we could have achieved, both individually and collectively. Quite simply, Audley Harrison MUST get a title shot against David Haye, and we Brits can all join hands together, in a non-gay way, as we watch perhaps the final moments of the career of Audley Harrison, or the beginning of something which we can all admire and be proud to say we were apart of. If Audley Harrison cam overcome all of the obstacles he has had to, self inflicted or not, then so can each and every one of us.

All together people "YES WE CAN!"

Yours in manliness,
Fantana

You do understand that calling this guy a ****** for the reason you stated suggests that you don't even grasp the fact that he's trying to be funny and actually crowns you as the emperor of ******edness, don't you?

If he's trying to be funny then i guess i forgot to laugh. This thread is ******ed. I'm sick and tired of Haye bull**** and i'm tired of most ******ed Haye fans still defending him like a freaking puppet. If you or anybodyelse wants to do a joke that's not even funny then go to the lounge forum. This is boxingchat not stand up comedy.

Well, if you read my post earlier in this thread you will see that i found this attempt at being funny pretty pathetic too. But i found that you taking the ts seriously and then proceeding to call him a ****** was right up there with it. Don't take it personal though, i just thought it was a weak post, but i'm sure you don't post like that all the time.

I dont read such long posts. However I can understand that in UK this fight may be big, something like Adamek-Golota was in Poland. It looks like Haye wants to wait as long as possible before fighting Klitschkos, who are getting older day by day.

is because Scottish stole one of his balls while 'servicing' David and TerryESB did likewise. This of course leaves David without a pair. Kinda obvious isn't it?

There is strong rumours going on that this fight has been made official. It had to happen people.

Audley KO Haye in 3 rounds.

Why David Haye simply MUST fight Audley Harrison next by Fantana

Five reasons why David Haye, WBA Heavyweight Champion, has to defend his belt, pride and man-hood against Audley 'A-Force' Harrison.

1) THE MONEY IS RIGHT

First and foremost, boxing is business. Those proud gladiators such as Floyd Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya know this, hence Oscar stated "I don't fight for free." The money that would be generated in this colossal fight of two hard hitting British pugilists would be immense. Both fighters could easily get career high pay days, somewhere in the region of 10 million quid plus. If the fight were to take place in summer/late summer, then it could be housed in an outdoor arena such as Wembley stadium. This is where the original Mike Tyson vs Frank Bruno fight was supposed to take place way back in 1988, the reasons it didn't take place where Don King. Luckily, no such promoter would be needed in this fight, since both are largely in control of their own business ventures. This means the fight would be a piece of **** to make, like scrambled eggs. Wembley stadium could hold 80,000 PLUS! For simple maths sake, let's say each ticket was £40. That is £3.2 million in gate receipts. With tickets going to be sold from £1,500, £500, £100, £75 and £40 you could easily double the gate receipts if you simply times £3.2 million twice. This makes an estimated, £6.4 million in gate receipts alone. Next up you have PPV sales. It would easily sell, in the UK alone, 1.5 million buys at £14.95. How did I come to this figure? David Haye sold almost 1 million alone versus Valuev. So 1.5 million x £14.95 is £22,425,000. Over £22 million. So as we can see, that is some big numbers. Then you have foreign TV rights, merchandising, sponsorship etc etc. Overall the fight would easily generate over £50 million, and that is a conservative effort by David Cameron. They say money talks, and I am willing to bet that a lot of ****ing money talks at a volume which makes everyone involved in making the fight sit up and take notice.

Don't care. We're not getting any of it and Haye's got more than us. He can fight somebody better instead. **** his bank account.

2) RIVALRY

The rivalry between Audley Harrison and rising star David Haye has heated up dramatically in the last 6 months. Before this, Audley Harrison was out in the cold so to speak, then out of nowhere as the underdog he came back and won the prize fighter tournament, whilst David Haye became WBA champion. In Britian, everybody knows who David Haye is, and everybody and their dog knows who Audley Harrison is. Their rivalry goes back to when they were both friends from the amateurs, when Audley Harrison captured Gold and took the light from David Haye who was unsure if he was going to be a fighter or a model. Then Haye turned pro and really took off, whilst Audley started impressively then lost steam through absolutely no fault of his own.

We all know the story that Audley says when Lennox was watching them spar, Haye took advantage and punched Audley Harrison in the mouth, which is not something you should be doing when sparring because it is cruel and hurts. This enraged Audley Harrison who like a real man, such as myself, went and told the papers. This generated some publicity. Years later, when Audley was still saying Haye was his friend (he took him to the Lennox vs Tua fight don't you know) David Haye would shun Harrison from one his undercards. This further distanced the fighters as friends and they became foe. It is one of the all time great rivalries, like Tyson and that bloke who beat him in the olympics trials who Tyson beat as a pro without mercy for I think 8 rounds, I forgot his name, or Riddick Bowe and Lennox Louis. What everyone talks about is David Haye vs Audley Harrison, **** Pacquio and Mayweather, they're not from the same country. This is big, this is internal, yet it's ripple effect of excitement has preceded the world cup as sportings most talked about potential match up. In effect, there is bad blood between the two big men, which makes for fascinating viewing.

Nobody cares. Audley's crap and everybody knows it. If Haye gives him a title shot he makes himself as big a joke as Audley is.

3) LEGITIMATE COMPETITION
Click to expand...

Fantana said: ↑

David Haye already has an impressive resume at heavyweight. He is undefeated at this weight, beat (albeit unfairly) all time great John Ruiz, monster man Valuev who is so big and scary looking his own reflection makes the hairs on the back of his neck stand up, he knocked out Monte Barrett, plus some polish guy.

Audley Harrison has just produced the knockout of the century, with one hand, after getting battered for the entire duration of the fight because he was injured. He is coming off this great win to capture the European Heavyweight championship of the world and of course the prize fighter win, which everyone in Britain watched with awe as he knocked man after man out with his super human mother ****ing power. Yet, they are both not without their vulnerabilities. David Haye has the tendency to switch off in a fight, and think he modelling again and just strut around the ring looking all muscular and ****. Audley Harrison has the tendency to get injured, forget how to fight and become lackluster.

Both fighters have been decked, and they both hit with tremendous force. This not only makes the fight exciting, it makes it a legitimate fight. They have both had great wins, are world ranked and to boot they can both be on their day tremendous fighters. This isn't Klitschko versus [Insert bums name here], this isn't Roy Jones vs Bernard Hopkins and this isn't Mayweather vs [Little Man], [Old man], [No one 'cos he's ****ing retiring again]. This is David WBA CHAMPION Haye versus Audley OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST AND EUROPEAN CHAMPION Harrison. The fight will do numbers better than anything Epic Beard Man could come up with. The heavyweight division is dead, has been since John Ruiz was robbed of his title. He was the only thing keeping it going, the Klitschkos have killed the heavyweight division by constantly fighting and beating everyone and no one at the same time, and they give me nightmares. For the foreseeable future at least, this is the only fight that can be made that is legitimate.

Haye hasn't got an impressive resume at heavyweight. Today's division is woefully crap. Barret's not a good fighter, nor's Valuev and nor's Ruiz but they're all miles better than Audley.

4) PREFIGHT BUILD UP

Everyone loves a good fight build up. Hatton vs Mayweather 24/7 was the best build up perhaps of all time, it was talked about by the masses. Where I used to work guys who didn't even like boxing would talk about it, to me even. People still talk about Ali, even though circa '70 he was **** and wouldn't last 5 minutes in today's heavyweight scene, but he could talk a good fight. If Audley Harrison plays his cards right, he has the making here to come in as the underdog, the galient warrior who has been through Hell yet has never given up on his dream, on the nations dream, of being World Heavyweight Champion. He can be the Cinderella Chris Brown sings about, and if Chris Brown tries to slap him Audley Harrison can literally rip his head off.

David Haye, he is ripe to play the bad guy role, it is a role he is made for. He is younger, freshier, cockier. He supports Millwall. He deletes my messages from his myspace page, and he punched John Ruiz in the back of the head. He is the perfect villain for this fight, the reigning supreme champion who just seems that bit too good, with his fists and mouth, which makes the mountain Audley Harrison has to climb that little bit bigger, that little bit more imagination will be needed in the viewers eyes, and if you start to think about all of this you will get a tingling down your spine, in a non-gay way, as the excitement for an all British 24/7 starts to become a reality. The barrage of verbal insults will fly long before the fists are gloved, long before the cameras roll, and every day when you open up a copy of the newspaper and skip past page 3 to secretly look at the boobies you will see a tyrant of abuse from David Haye against his challenger, who will all the while be doing what he needs to do behind closed doors to win the fight. The stage is set, the money is right, people are talking about it. What else?

Audley's crapness is far too well known, nobody is going to be fooled. The fight is a joke and everybody knows it.
