Audley Harrison - Still Taking About A Comeback..

if he was a pundit for big fights hed spend the whole night telling people ''yes i can''.

 

Audley has always said stuff and then always stunk the place out. But I must admit, this guy is great and no matter how you rate him. People always spectate his fights. If he wants to continue i'd say let him. The guy deserves so much respect. Time after time he's dismissed and even though he keeps failing , he still finds the belief to come back. If he comes back I can only see him fighting at domestic level against the likes of Martin Rogan and Matt Skelton etc. What is the point though? He wont make amazing money and I can imagine him being a pretty wealthy man. Everyone knows he can only now fight at domestic level, but whats the point of fighting and then getting stopped eventually like usual against either Hughie Fury or Anthony Joshua. If I could choose I would personally love him to fight in Prizefighter and win it an then retire. He has never got to World Level in his prime and certainly wont when he is shot.

 

That would be a downside but I feel that Sky needs a Kriss Akabusi style hype man right now.

 

He beats Hughie right now

 

Fraudley is a joke... This conman will likely win prizefighter again.... and then claim he's "back" and better than ever, he will then talk his way into big fight and come fight night will freeze and get KO'd as soon as the first punch lands. It's always the same story with A-farce...

 

He singlehandedly killed boxing on BBC then not content with that managed to kill PPV (box office) on Sky.

Conclusion - Never underestimate the power of the A-Force!

 

No fan of Audley's but he did, for a short time, raise the profile of boxing in the UK with his Olympic gold. His profile was high be it delivering a report to Downing Street to request more funding for amatuer boxing or meeting the Queen to receive his award for his Olympic success. At this stage he could have taken his success in the direction of sports administration but instead decided to enter the professional ranks. Due to his Olympic win he was touted as the natural successor to Lennox Lewis by the British media.

When he turned professional most knowledgable pundits felt he was too old to develop into a potential world heavyweight champion.

He got a decent contract with the BBC but the quality of the bouts was so poor that viewing figures dropped significantly over the course of the contract. This gave more ammunition to the politically correct faction at the BBC who wanted to stop broadcasting the sport. Harrison was not the main reason that boxing is not shown regularly by the BBC but he certainly played a part.

Personally I don't care for Harrison's so called positivism/self belief. He always talks a better game than he produces. I think that he has overplayed his hand and has no credibility.

 

His life style in the US isn't cheap got him self a big old house has to pay medical bills as well as schooling fees for his kids he doesn't have any other income he savings are dwindling at a fast rate..

 

You obviously don't know what you're talking about, as he does have another income.

 

"spared with wilder, but says his got the tools to deal with him" 40 seconds later..

At least on twitter he admits that his just above British level which to be fair is probably right, his got to stop deluding himself with that new age dream mounting climbing bollocks though

 

I would say David Price is the top of the British level as he is the current British heavyweight champion. Price, as we all know, beat Harrison easily.

At the moment Harrison is around English title level but I expect McDermott would beat him.

 

good point, completely forgot Price still has that belt. I was more going for the angle that at least his not banging on about being world camp next week

 

must have had a bad time at the poker table in LA and now will come running back to our shores with cap in hand wanting us to fill his bank balance , put on a **** poor peromance against some bum then off he will fly back to LA
ah the good old british public
