audley harrison

[sugarboybenjamin]

how good can this brit guy be? i saw him on best damn sports show with james toney and roy jones, hes big lefthanded guy with goodskills. will he better than nigel benn or chris eubanks?

[Reedondo]

Let me tell you something about Audrey. He's big, slow, old and irritating. He looks like he might have something about him but doesn;t fight enough and will never EVER be heavyweight champ. He talks too much but doesn;t do it in the ring. He's still afforded some kind of celebroty status in Britain after winning gold at the 2000 Olympics but is basically a useless shitty waster.

I hope he gets what's coming to him very soon.

[BritishLion]

I'm sure I'm not being a Benn or Eubank nut-hugger or anything when I say that Audley Harrison does not deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as Benn or Eubank.

[littlebif]

Its about time he fights some1 decent.He keeps telling people that hes going to be world champion well time is ticking he is getting on now! He said he could whoop Danny Williams with in his firsts 10 fights,He wont even get in the ring with anyone thats gonna try to ko him.What a waste of time he is!

Hope he proves me wrong though! Cause he does seem to have some technical ability.

[CutMeMick]

I saw his fight on ESPN and nothing about him, his style, his presence captured me and he fought like anyother boxer he did nothing to show where you can seperate him from other boxers. He just blended right in. I see nothing special there.

[smashup]

anyone who struggles against Julius "Daily mirror shoes" francis is Doomed.
He's too old,He would have neede to have 4/5 fights a year starting 2/3 years ago to be in contention now.
He has'nt,He won't
He's Sh*t and an Embarresment to himself and the UK.

Audinary NOT Audley

[El Kabong]

....yeah but it'll be fun to see him get knocked out cold!!!

[smashup]

Should be fun as it goes

[feeney]

He came into the scene acting like a champ that was his mistake, But remember how crap the heavy division is so you cant say he wont win a title. He should fight skelton and then a few more decent opponents and then maybey a title shot. But i have never liked audley hes a fat wanker.

[Sheps]

Audley is a waste and a joke. yeah, he hasnt thought no one worthy other then Julius Francis, and he was a late replacement.

Audley is all mouth, saying he would be world champ by the time he is about 30 or something, the guy is just a clown with as much talent as matt skelton.

[Memphis]

Say what you like about Audleys progress or future plans but calling him slow, shit, fat and talentless is about the dumbest thing Ive read all day.

Some of you should know better.

I think slow is a more than fair comment
about his career and his workrate in the ring

my biggest gripe with Audley is he seems afraid to get hit he talks a big fight but he would'nt touch Matt Skelton with a barge pole

[Memphis]

Oh his career developement no doubt, and yes he is painfully economical, but to be fair he has had some serious injuries.......jesus I sound as bad as Meunouk

[jhar26]

He's a talented fighter but he will probably never reach his full potential because he's not willing to fight anyone who's any good. How much time does he think he has? He's had some problem with injuries to his hand(s),right? That may have interrupted with his progress somewhat,but still.....

Say what you like about Audleys progress or future plans but calling him slow, s***, fat and talentless is about the dumbest thing Ive read all day.

Some of you should know better.

[Purist]

Now from an unbiased perspective.


Audley has a quick left cross. And a good jab.

He fights a slow pace and makes it work.

When he turns up the pace he's deadly.

He's tall

He's a southpaw.

His weaknesses

His chin hasn't been tested, but he did get clocked pretty cleanly by the Dutch Sonny Liston without taking a backwards step.

He backs out of clinches with his hands down.

He backs up with his hands up, but arms to wide and a strait shot can go through it.

All in all, he has potential to be a contender. He needs to step up the opposition. It's not his fault hurt his hand, well it is, but it shouldn't be held against him

If u wanna talk about opposition, what Heavyweight "contender" or "prospect" has fought a top 10 heavyweight yet :

Exactly, so don't single Audley out. :

Anyway he got potential, in about 2 years we'll know where he stands.
