    No-ones selling me this fight.
    Haye could ko Audley within 2 rounds. What would be the point?

    What that Haye might firstly manage to miss Audley all night long (because we all know one Hayemaker and he is outta here) and that Audley might be able to do what he did to Sprott and land a lucky punch and spark Haye, Sprott himself said that if he knew that he was winning that punch would never have landed. **** fight, an absolute joke for the sport and Haye. I'm sure Audley will be happy he can laugh all the way to the bank like he's done for all his career.

    People saying that Harrision sells tickets......well he doesn't. The last time a fight with Audley on the card hasn't sold out since 2005 agaisnt Danny Williams.

    I was at his last fight with Sprott. the rumour going round was that Sprott vs Audley was moved to 10pm becuase Harrison has only sold 90 tickets and Hearn was worried all the fans that were there two see Darren Barker and Chris Evangerlou would leave.

    Harrison doesn't sell tickets!

    Audley Harrison was a tit 5 years ago....he's even more of a tit now. He's an embarrasment to British boxing.

    Harrison being a recognised name doesn't cut it, Haye's big enough to sell out a fight with anyone. Ruiz being relatively unknown in the UK didn't stop the MEN arena being a sell out.

    I can understand why Haye would want a few fights under his belt before the Klits, but he needs to be fighting the likes of Adamek, Chagaev. Even if he had to fight a fellow brit, he shuld go for Sexton or Chisora...but the gulf in class will make it a boring fight.

    If this fight goes thru, Audley's titness will be transferred to Haye and he'll be the latest British laughing stock in boxing

    This is actually a risky match up for Haye, if he loses to Audley, he can kiss the his career good bye. And in boxing anything can happen. On the flip side such a scenario will turn a household joke in to a serious contender for one of the Klits.

    Gotta love boxing!

    As a massive Haye supporter, if this fight comes off it will be a pathetic move.

    The one major factor which contributes to everyones attitude on Haye currently is the **** talking he has directed towards the Klitschko's. If he doesn't take a fight with one of them when there is clearly a huge money making opportunity after all he has said....his reputation might be irredeemable.

    I can fully understand the appeal and revenue it can generate from casual fans, but every single comment from Haye has all been about 'fighting the best' and 'building a legacy'.

    I will wait for an official announcement first as all these rumours at the moment mean little. He needs a sign a fight with Vitali :smoke

    Exactly. Never underestimate the draw of an all-British world title fight. Haye gets an easy payday/warm-up for a Klitch fight, Harrison can say he went out challenging at the top. Both of them earn out of it.
