Do any of the Brits here give Audley a good chance against Haye?

    Harrison can pick his punches very well on occasion. If that occasion matches the occassion when Haye rushes in then it could be a chance for Harrison. Despite all the disrespect Haye knows Harrison's strenghts and his weakness, i think he will fight smart. TKO 4 Haye.

    No chance at all. Welliver has a greater chance of beating Wlad. I don't get why people keep saying Audley has a punchers chance. He isn't a puncher and isn't very quick. I was sat almost ringside whilst he struggled to keep up with a shot former Brazilian cruiser. He has decent skills but doesn't use them enough and certainly won't get the chance to against a keyed up Haye trying to detonate one on him.

    Audley has the most bizarre way of telegraphing his punches- he presses his teeth together, sometimes opens his mouth to where you can see the full gum shield and his whole facial expression changes to a 'here comes the punch' demeanor.

    Ah, I was high as a kite when I wrote that and meant to write Harrison instead of Haye!

    :lol:

    So back to the question I had intended to ask....

    What do you think Harrison's best chance is? Aside from bringing a weapon inside the ring.

    :lol:

    I thought it was either a strange question or you were being sarcastic...:lol:

    I know this is going to sound simplistic but I think Harrisons best chance is to try and get in close and "jump" on Haye early.

    Audley has a poor jab and I think once Haye gets his distance and timing going then it will be the beginning of the end. Getting in close and early will at least attempt to nullify those pros and cons.


    What about you? How do you (seriously!!!:D) see the fight going?

    No, I'm just a ****ing burn out! :lol:

    I'm honestly not sure. KO4 for Haye (which is what you and Dempsey said) seems realistic.

    I'd love to see Audley win, though. I think it would create some noise in the division, although honestly, I think a Briggs win against Vitali would be even better for the division because it would probably lead to a fight between Briggs and Wlad and I think with the two Klits standing head and shoulders above the rest, it kind of limits the division's potential.

    That said, I think Audley has a fair chance because I still have questions about Haye's ability to withstand true heavyweight power.

    I tend to agree with you. Audley needs to either jump on Haye early or set an early trap to try and create opportunities to land a big shot.

    If Harrison cannot hurt Haye in the first three or four rounds, I think his chances decrease significantly. That said, I would still give him a puncher's chance because not only do I have questions about Haye's chin, but I also have questions about his stamina.

    I did love watching Harrison's last fight with Sprott, however. That twelfth round KO was some dramatic stuff.

    Would love to see A-Force pull the upset, but realistically, his chances seem slim.

    Hayes stamina is certainly suspect but I think it would be dangerous for Harrison to be too passive in the early rounds in the hope of still being around in the 7th/ 8th round to take advantage of it.

    Better to have an early go at that shaky chin IMHO!!

    Listen, even since i came back from my 7 day ban. I've been more pissed than normal, because i was having a bad enough week as it was. And the last thing i needed was a 7 day ban..............

    People need to understand that if David Haye had fought all of his career at Heavyweight, he would of been beaten by now. Infact if he would of faced all of Audley Harrison's challenges, he would of been beaten............sparked out.

    He would of been beaten by Danny Williams, and Micheal Sprott would of been trouble for him. He's built up his whole reputation off knocking out afew 14 stone characters at Crusierweight. The Heavyweight division is a whole different ball game...........

    He claimed that he knock some 6"5 14stone no mark out at Crusierweight in 45seconds........and used this as the reason, why 6"5 southpaws are made for him....? :lol:

    There are no mugs at Heavyweight.

    I'm not underrated David Haye, he is a very good fighter. But to say a 6"5 250 black man, with a 86" reach, and former Olympic Champion, who occasional listens to James Brown. Has no chance is stupid, if you people genuiely beleave that you are totally delusional.

    David Haye has never faced anybody at Heavyweight with the combined size and skill of Audley Harrison, Audley Harrison only really beats himself. Audley Harrison is a not a all-time great, but the man has ability. It's a myth that he can't take a punch, and he can't dig down deep......even in **** performances against Marton Rogan, he was fighting back..!!

    Its a myth that he is a coward, and just goes to show how stupid the public is, and how influential the papers are.

    David Haye & Audley Harrison both have **** stamina, and i think this will play a big factor in the fight. David Haye will be expending more energy, bouncing about, come November 13th...........Audley Harrison is not going to be the guy backing up or giving up ground.

    And to people who know boxing, this will be no shock. Because if you watch all of Audley Harrison fights, he does not give up ground.......he will stand there and wrestle you...push you off, but he does not give up ground.

    David Haye so far at Heavyweight has reverted back to his instincts. He mentions himself in the same breath as Nigel Benn, saying that he likes to come out throwing bombs and taking risks....and not giving up ground.

    David Haye is a cagey fighter, and counter puncher. And he is intimidated by Size, and this makes him revert back to his instincts. Which are to fight on the back foot, and looking for 1 or 2 counter punches...............which he is very good at.

    He's nothing like Nigel Benn at Heavyweight, or Mike Tyson. He's not got the mentality to fight like them at Heavyweight......

    When he fights anybody with abit of size and reach advantage, he becomes cagey, which is right of him.

    Because lets face it, if he gets hit with the Equalizer.

    It's over...!!!

    Game Change, Match Change, Outcome Change............Done!!!!! he ain't there no more.

    He won't be posting on his Twitter Page for afew weeks, truuuuuuuuuushtt.

    Since the media has turned on Audley Harrison, people have been brain washed. People get brain washed all the time in this world, through the media and tv..............I DON'T.

    For example, Ronald Winky Wright is meant to be a predominantly defensive fighter.....? This is another myth, and a complete utter bull****.

    Ronald Winky Wright is and has always been a pressure fighter, with a tight guard.

    One of two things happens...

    1. Audley comes out like he did against Danny Williams in their second fight, and starts throwing 1-2s and trying to land the left early, his aggression sees Haye slip the shots and take him out inside the first round.

    2. Audley paws with the jab and fights cautiously and Haye pot shots and goes to the body for a couple of rounds before going on the offensive and ending it in the third or fourth.

    But I'd laugh if Audley pulled out a miracle and sparked Haye, that would serve the whole Haye team right for this disgrace of a bout.

    If Audley lands the big on on Haye it will be all over. Audley had a good puncher's chance,but does he have the will? If he has the focus he can knock Haye out.

    I honestly think Audley is going to get a very bad beating, I dont give Audley a good chance, Only a punchers chance because Haye like all British boxers has that weak chin ala Hatton/Khan/Marcinelli.

    Ive never heards so much garbage in my life! How are those three all british boxing? and how does Hatton have a weak chin? he got knocked out by Pacqiuo and Mayweather hardly a disgrace. What about Carl Froch he british does he have a weak chin? Lennox Lewis? Joe Calzaghe? Chris Eubank? did they all have weak chins? Surely Audley has a weak chin too since he is british?
