    This fight has the potential to do massive numbers, i wont harp on because its all been said, but Fraudley, for all his limitations as a fighter talks a great fight, so does Haye, this could sell big. Really big.

    It may sell but would only last a round or two. I just wish Haye would ****ing announce a fight already.

    Nope.

    This fight would sell shed-loads.

    I hate the fight but I'll buy tickets to it and record it on PPV.

    Sadly this fight will be the biggest seller after the Wlad and Vitali (I hope the Vitali fight gets made). I think Adamek would sell really well too but Audley is less risk, higher reward.

    True. Over the past decade Ruiz has had the absolute worst reputation in boxing when it comes to box office appeal, yet the fight did well.

    Depends how many more casual fans can be suckered into buying a Haye-Audrey ppv. Haye will have to insult the public's intelligence & talk complete bollocks to build up Harrison when promoting it.

    Anyone who doesn't think this should sell should shoot themselves in the face.

    1. A fight between arguably 2 of the 3 most famous active British boxers.
    2. A fight at heavyweight, the blue riband division.
    3. A fight that can be billed as being for the Heavyweight Championship of the World (semi-legitimately.)
    4. A fight between two fighters with one punch KO power.
    5. A fight between two fighters with a back story and bad blood.

    And this is going to fail?...

    You're waffling bollocks again, robpalmer135.

    After all the talk Haye refuses to fight Vitali or Vlad, breaking two contracts. I want to see that fight, but it will never happen. Doubt if Haye will get the guts to fight Chagaev either.
