    38 years old on a string of victories against largely no names or regional type guys. Massive reach, good height, respectable boxing skills, questionable chin.

    Does he give Haye a good fight?

    Man Audley is just the type of fighter you DON'T want to fight when you are David Haye. Guys that are known to have buckets of talent but their head and heart keep them from achieving anything.

    He is just the type of guy that Haye will half ass prepare for. And Haye is just the type of career defining challenge that Audley will have amazing focus for. Recipe for an upset.

    I hope Haye can spark him out and keep the HW division interesting, but eventually he has to see one of the giants...

    Insightful post and a possibility. With Hayes low work rate he might let A Force stay alive enough to cause him problems..then again..

    I don't get to see much of Haye's fights, but from what I have seen he tends to do a "cool guy" defense and punches (at times) from his waist. I like the personality Haye brings to the game, but after watching the Valuev fight? I don't know if he has the toolset to beat a big pure boxer.

    I can seriously see Audley jabbing the hell out of him and leaning on him in the early rounds. 'Round mid fight when the steam is off of Haye's punches start doing the 1,2. Then again Audley might come in looking like trash.

    Which Harrison will show up... The medalist or the taxi cab driver punching bag? :think

    Im looking for footage of the last sprott fight. From all accounts A Force needed a KO to win and got it in the 12th, looking pathetic along the way.

    A force isn't done because there was nothing there to lose in the first place (as a pro). He was 30 seconds away from getting schooled by Sprott ffs. An absolute farce of a fight. :verysad

    Harrison will fold as easy as Maccarinelli did, though he has a very slight puncher's chance.

    This is a joke of a fight and anyone who supports it is either A: from the UK or B: actually, there is no B. They're just from the UK.

    A-side meth is called that because it's made from the blood of A-Force

    I am not a Haye, but I sincerely hope that he does not take this fight. He's at a fork in the road right now and he can either become a huge international star or just some title holder from the UK. This fight is a big step toward the latter.

    if Harrison stays long enough until Haye starts pumping there is a small chance that Harrison could test Hayes chin by landing a left..

    Im watching the sprott fight now. A Force looks slow, uninterested and sprott looks like buster douglas in there. Shame sprott got caught like that in the 12th

    Yep really.
    And anyone who gave Vitaly hell for sos should jump all over Haye considering Fraudley is losing to fighters even worse then sos, Not only that but Haye has a chance to fight the #1 heavyweight in the world and instead is going for this pathetic joke.
