Genuine question for you Brits

I would much prefer Haye backup his big statements of taking down the klits... but would love to see Audley get sparked

 

:barf

Not good at all...:-(

 

I think it could potentially hit huge numbers, I wonder if Audley will be able to rise to the challenge and as people have already said large numbers of casuals would be interested in this fight. I personally know a large number of people who have talked about this fight happening who aren't even boxing fans and that just the point if it gets people talking it will do well.

 

As has already been said, it would probably bring big numbers, which is ultimately all that matters for fighters/promoters, but it's an absolutely awful fight for the hardcore fans. If it happens I have no intention of watching. :verysad

 

Excellent

You win the arguement :happy

 

For once i agree with pri madonna.This fight would be massive i think most if not all brit boxing fans will watch and i dont it would be as easy as evry1 thinks it would be 4 haye.The more i think about this fight the more i think this would be 1 for british boxing history.

 

Good greif , is this what boxing in the UK has come too !!!!

What a load of shite , big man Kevin Mitchell just put 20'000 bums on seats in London , what are Audley's last gate's ?????

 

CP, I really don't want to see this fight.

Audley only throws when his opponents stop chucking. Haye would decimate him in a round, and it would be a waste of everyones time, except for Hayes bank manager.

 

I was at Mitchell, and I think the turn out was pretty unsatisfactory.

 

Im searching high and low for a solid source , i thought the turn out was 20K , i base that loosley on Colin Hart saying " thats why 20'000 people have turned out to see this fight " during his commentary !!!!

Seen one source saying 14'800 , but it was just a post on another forum , i cant find anything on the confirmed attendance ......

 

Hardcore boxing fans make up a very very small % of sports fans in this country.

Sky can market this as World Champions vs Olympic Gold Medalist and rope them all in.

They can make it sound competitive by talking about Audley's physical advantages along with Haye's questionable stamina and 'iffy chin'.

As much as we'd hate the fight, it's a **** easy sell and would probably do record ppv numbers.

Who was it who said, 'if it makes money, it makes sense' ?

 

**** this fight.... I don't want to see it at ALL!!

 

This will be the biggest fight in Britain for over 30 years... trust me...

People have got to stop looking at this from a knowledgable boxing fan's perspective. We all know that this could be easy for Haye and, in fact, so do most casual fans. But a lot of people will pay to see if Haye can shut Audley up once and for all or, on the other hand, whether Audley was right all along.

This could EASILY sell out a football stadium (not Wembley though) and the build up will be something different.

Crap fight but what an event!

 

It would sell but Haye cant do it .... surely???

 

Haye is nearly 30 years old and it is looking likely that a fight with either Klitschko is not going to happen for a while. They may not ever happen as Vitali is nearly 40 and will retire within 18 months and Wladimir is 34 and may lose his title to someone before Haye gets his chance...

Therefore, as a Husband and a Father, David Haye has to make a fight that will give him security for the rest of his life. Apart from a Klitschko brother Haye can only make that kind of money against Audley.
