    If Audley got his A game on and has his **** together he could make a battle of it.. He badly needs to get back on the bike though following the Sprott loss..

    I have put a fighter in against Alex and he is surprisingly good , but we faced him over a fast 6 rounds.. It was custom made for a kid coming out of the games..

    Audley has a head start , and will know what to expext from an ex olympian.

    Push his Cardio and make it a very tiring fight..

    Povetkin likes to overwealm and stop his opponents..

    If Audley moved and stabbed a SOLID jab out constantly, saving a big surge for the last 3 rounds, Harrison could pull it off on Paper..

    Technically it is possible over 10..

    Audley needs to be more active though...

    Povetkin is too much of an animal for the timid Harrison.

    To be fair Bigcat, that's like me sayign "If Ivan Calderon had the chin of Chuvalo and the power of Earnie Shavers, he'd beat Muhammad Ali" :lol:

    I was one of those people who defended Harrison because he did have potential. however, potential is only useful when you can use it. Harrison hasn't shown 1/10th of his potential, and there is no reason why he would in this fight.

    Povetkin would stop him around 4.

    Jack.. I agree..

    The point i make is that Audley has the skills within his artillery , but has suffered too much and is now kinda gunshy..

    Pushed against the wall .. I take Sasha in the 5 6 round region..

    But in a perfect scenario on a fresh undamaged Audley taking him into a newer 10 round distance, he would have a great chance at getting to Povetkin.. Donald tried that game but showed age , Audley had the potential in 2001 but has of late looked very sorry for himself.

    The difference between winning and losing is Povetkins drive and ambition and Audleys lack of it........

    Has Audley just been awarded the decision or is he still trying to clambour to his feet after a vicious assault..

    Povetkin by KO, due to an accumilation of punches on the ropes in the 5th round.

    If Audley is confident but careful he will win.

    audley little talent and no balls.

    povetkin has already moved beyond this level of opponent.

    the gay-force should challenge solis. then again, solis has also already moved beyond this level of opponent.........

    Povetkin would likely crack Fraudley's china chin in a round or two.:deal

    This is laughable, as soon as Povetkin, whom hits much harder than the journeyman Sprott, lands the right shot on Fraudley's jaw, it's over quite frankly.

    He wouldn't be able to establish anything because he has a grade a china chin, an average defence and overrated abilities, people need to stop overrating all Olympians...

    It's hilarious how Fraudley got all of that hype from day 1, yet a Cuban in Solis will just be observed critically like Povetkin currently is and has been. The difference is that Povetkin is actually something promising, where as Fraudley was nothing.
