    I have never been so excited by one of former world champion Audley Harrison's fights. Since he was added to the Calzaghe undercard, I have been really excited. It's irrational and I don't understand it. I get the feeling that Harrison is going to get a sort of popularity swing that Eubank got in the latter part of his career if he strings a few wins together. Harrison has been through a lot of **** lately but he still has size and can make some noise. I just remember the way he demolished Danny Williams impressively. Yes, I know that Williams was fat and past his best. If only Audley had some heart, he's lacked balls so far and his chin leaves a lot to be desired.

    I admit to wanting him to fail before due to his own hype but I'd now like to see him make the most of what he's got.

    Is it time to stop kicking the man when he's down?

    Danny took the fight at a few days notice so was not conditioned for the fight.

    I agree with you on AH lacking balls, he becomes timid and in fear of opponnents and this appears to affect his boxing. A bit more confidence and he could get back in the picture.

    He is a big guy and has good reach but his jab is **** poor. He should be snapping peoples heads off with his jab.

    Abunch of American under card fighters but we do get Bradley Pryce vs Bravo and Nathan Calverly.

    I am glad Audley is making a comeback. I know it has been a laugh to see him not do too well but I actually would like him to achieve some success. I doubt he will get a decent opponent on the card but for a first showing after his recent problems all he needs is to be back in the ring.

    Id like him to do well but i think mentally he just isnt there.
    He could probably win some fights on the jab alone but he just wont snap it out there. He should look at Wlad and try and emulate his style a little .hes got the physical presence to do it but seemingly not the confidence.
    Its almost sad really all the bravado and big talk and he has never looked like backing up his claims

    He makes Wlad's chin look like pure granite. That essentially is his problem and one that renders him incapable of doing much at heavyweight.

    Sprott landed one lucky punch and A-Force was fast asleep for several minutes.

    I still believe he will be undisputed champ within two years though.

    He could possibly unify the WBF and IBG world titles and be undisputed when he beats Haye.

    Where does it say he's on the undercard? I've read it anywhere but here.
