Haye v Harrison

[birdieman]

Anyone buying the hype doing the rounds for this fight? Pretty unconvincing isn't it?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/8983577.stm

IMO they're just trying to drum up interest so Sky can do PPV at £20 or something. It's over 2 months away yet!
Quite entertaining banter nonetheless.

Poor Sian on BBC breakfast was quite intimidated sat between them. Personally I don't think Audley "it's not tiddlywinks" Harrison can do intimidation, seems like a big softie! Pair of them reminded me of 2 schoolkids sat outside the headmasters office!

For the record I think Haye will KO Harrison in 5 rounds.

Anyone think Audley can win?

Not really into boxing, but i don't understand how Harrison has got this match. I thought it was meant to be one of the Klitschko brothers who challenged next?

 

[lynchy76]

Im going to it hopefully already got a ticket just depends if Im working or not, hopefully haye can retire harrison cant stand him. Early knockout predicted.

 

[Jabba]

It was a shame when Harrison landed that punch against Sprott. Up until that point I had hoped it was going to be Fraudley's last appearance in a ring.

 

[Basher]

Harrison will definitely get put on his arse by Haye.

No contest. Just a money spinner/retirement fund for Harrison.

 

[Yidio]

Over inside a round. I don't particularly dislike Audley but Haye will spark him out within a couple of minutes i reckon.

David Haye is a coward, end of.

He has dodged the klitchkos time and time again, once feigning injury and then after that always banging on about the money side of things.

The fact is Haye will get taken apart by either of the brothers, vladimir or vitali will take him to school and he is bricking it.

If he was the real-deal he wouldnt be fighting a loser like fraudley who only didnt retire based on a jammy last-gasp wonder-punch.

This is a fight that any hardcore boxing fan thinks isnt worth a light. I know that Kevin Mitchell thinks it is a joke as he said so 2 days ago.

For those with a taste for the noble art, look at a fella I know who lives near me, Tom Dallas, genuine heavyweight prospect who will hopefully fighting for a British Belt next year.

 

[BrianDamage]

medwayjon knows the score.....

 

[colint]

+2 medwayjon. I'm no fan of Audrey but I hope he gets a lucky punch and flattens Haye. Looking for an easy payday before he gets destroyed by either Klitchko brother, no way to act as a champion. He's a coward and a fraud

 

[birdieman]

I'm no boxing expert but isn't coward a bit off. Anyone who steps in the ring with that 7'2" monster Valuev isn't a coward surely?
I would understand if you meant he was just trying to protect his record by avoiding better fighters until they're past it.

Why oh why are there so may versions of each belt? - it's absolutely ridiculous that you can have 5 or 6 heavyweight champions at the same time, devalues the title of champion totally.

Anyone with any sense would admit there should only be one governing body for world titles at least or am I wrong?

 

[medwayjon]

The other thing with Haye is that he genuinely is just a piece of trash.

He lacks any sort of class whatsoever.

Look at the t-shirt he was wearing with him holding the brothers' torn-off heads, an absolute disgrace, even more so when you considered he bottles fighting them.

Look at the press conference this week, many poor statements but by using gang-rape as a comparisson shows just what a piece of scum this coward really is.

David Haye is scum, audley is a fraud but I know which of the 2 I have some respect for.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Sorry Jon but I disagree. Never into the pre-fight shenanigans anyway but at least Haye has a bit about him. Harrison had a glittering opportunity after the olympics and simply hasn't been up to it in terms of skill, performance and opponents. Haye in 3 for me and then he really has no place to hide from the brothers grim

 

[medwayjon]

I think the outcome is all but nailed-on homer, I see Haye being too good for Audley, however if Audley catches Haye with a flukey big-left it could leave haye on his arse.

With the odds that will be offered im definately going to stick an ayrton on Audley KOing haye as a speculative punt.

As for no place to hide, he will have though. Audley isnt in that class so there are plenty of other fights Haye could take to dodge the klitschkos.

Fights against the likes of Adamek & Chagaev who would both cause him problems in my eyes. There are also the guys that Vitali and Vladimir are fighting, Shannon Briggs & Samuel Peter.

The sooner someone badly hurts Haye in a fight (and I mean in boxing terms, not life threatening or causing permanent harm) the better in my eyes. He needs to learn some manners, learn to stop running his gob-off and stop acting like a piece of crap which in my eyes, is all he is.

 

[madandra]

I can see Audley Embarrassment waking up with a crowd round about him after 2 rounds. Duds the both of them.

 

[Snelly]

Totally disagree with the comments about David Haye. I have met him several times and he is a gentleman. Lovely bloke and what you see is just the trash talk that he uses as he knows it will generate interest in the gutter press for his fights and increase his revenues.

He will put Harrison out inside 2 rounds and I would back him against either Klitschko too.

Honestly, he is a very nice chap indeed.

 

[JT77]

I enjoy a bit of boxing, but the heavyweight division has been a joke for several years now! I think Haye will take Harrison out comfortably, inside 6. I also think the Klitchkos are as much to blame for dodging haye as he is of dodging them, they all seem to look for the easiest pay days, and for a way to keep them coming. I guess that is their choice. None of them deserve to be heavy weight champ.

 

[Imurg]

Its all a huge joke really.

Isn't it?

Or are they serious?

What a bunch of Neanderthals..........

 

[Atticus_Finch]

This fight is going to be over so quick, I reckon they'll have to film it using one of those cameras they use to film a bullet going through a melon.
Haye's no Ali, but Audley is a grade A chump.

 

[pokerjoke]

Anyone who thinking of going imo dont bother Haye will win first round.Audley doesnt even deserve a shot and imo Haye is taking a backward easy option,he has already said previously he wants to unify the titles and be undisputed hwcotw the only way hes going to do that is take out the other champs.
