Audley says he's accepted the fight with Wilder.

I despise Wilder, nevermind our common nationality :roll:

+1 Yank support for Audley! Hope he wins by T/KO within three rounds!

 

Come on Audley!

 

You've got to love Audley these days. I would be ecstatic if he could pull off the win, but let's be reasonable - Audley hasn't exactly performed on the big stage particularly well and he hasn't had a decent win in a normal fight format since the Williams KO...that's six years ago! edit: he did perform well against Rogan four years ago.

From Wilder's perspective, this is an excellent fight and better than all the rest of the competition he has faced. That said, Price stopped Harrison in the first, so almost anything less than a decent KO will look like a poor result for Wilder. In reality, we won't be able to take much from this to judge Wilder on unless he looks bad (which is a shame). Essentially, there is a lot to be lost for Wilder, and only one possible outcome that can be considered to be positive.

I think the fact that this might go ahead is more likely to suggest that Wilder dealt with Harrison well in sparring. It would be a silly fight to take if they thought he would have trouble.

 

He got floored a couple of times in the amateurs and there is a photo of him in a pro fight getting floored by a lardass who looks like Butterbeans cousin.
