    Why has he been training at altitude, if he has to leave 17-18 days before the fight?

    The effects of altitude training only last for a couple of weeks I believe.

    Your right, but perhaps along with the altitude, the solidude was important to him.

    He wanted to stay longer but i think hayemaker want him in this country earlier to help sell the fight.I might be wrong but i think i read somewhere that it was in his contract for him to be in this country 3 weeks before the fight.He is moaning about leaving his training camp early on the boxing scene website.
     
  7. Booth has come out and said Harrison was aware of this before he went to Big Bear.

    I think its quite funny the way sky have gone into overdrive with the hype on this fight . Its obvious they are trying to attract the casuals,and hey with it been a world HW title fight with 2 British boxers it may work. But hardcore fans cant honestly say that this fight will be remotley competitive. Haye ends it whenever he feels like it basically.

    Won't have the same affect.

    Yeah, I've heard he was aware of this, or atleast it was in the contract that he signed.

    Doesnt matter if the altitude changes, what does matter is that you need to train that bit harder at altitude and even if your height level changes your fitness wont ;)

    Hope its not the old one Danny Wiliams had a while back. I am sure that was just a normal Argos job full of cakes.

    You have to train harder because the air is thinner at high altitude, as a result your body will produce more RBCs to compensate for this.
