Thread: if u had to fight Audley Harrison tonight as a stand in with your current skills etc

How would you fight him?

Rogan beat him it seems to me after watching their fight last night by just coming forward very aggresively - not to much method to the madness lol, he was failing, off balence etc but not more than maybe once or twice did Audley catch him even though his counterpunching style shouyld have had rogan out of there.
Dominic Guinn beat Audley by winning the who can throw least contest

Thinking of your current condition & skills how would you fight audley if you were called right now to be the stand in for haye (paid a good amount!)

I have limited boxing skills/experience and probably good fitness but I have to say I think I would go for a Rogan style attack as theres no way even at 6 ft 3 as im only 210 pounds that I could outpowerhim and I definetly could not outjab him even though I have a decent jab as his arms are about twice as long and he has a better jab himself haha.

Probably eithe end up walking into one OR (hahahaha) land my lucky punch and become THE NEW EUROPEAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!!!, Mayb that is more a 1 in 100 chance though

you?

I would move him around a bit. He is a big unit and does run out of stamina by mid fight. If you move Audley around laterally he doiesn;t get set properly.

He likes to counterpunch, but only when he has a set stance and a solid platform, so people that come stright forward at him are perfect for his style. He was a good amateur but he stayed there too long and this is a classic amateur flaw ...... he needs to set himself properly, but doesnt have great footwork .....and when he can't, his basic techniques are poor.

I'd shell up and get in close and windmill away.

Wouldn't fancy my chances much against the ref, let alone a fighting machine like Audrey.

Key question.


How good a swimmer are you?

Audley doesnt like to fight. His best win was Danny Williams II and even then with the odds so stacked in his favour he didnt want to fight.

Keep your right hand superglued to your chin on the way in, and bombs away!

seeing how i'm only 5'11 and 160 lbs, i'd just run in and hope for the best, ah fuck it i'd swim all the way from Puerto Rico to England as my training then spark him in a round hahahaha

I'd have no chance. Not unless i started swimming with ICB anyway.

mayb its a 1 in 5 chance after that... haha

Actually, after watching that. I'd just windmill him for definate. He couldn't take my thumbs!

KO in 2

dont anyone sell yourselves short a bit of swimming and we could all beat harrison , i myself would beat him anyway.

After watching that I'd fancy my chances, despite the fact he'd outweigh me by 7 stone and would be 5 inches taller. He seems to have forgotten how to throw a punch. I reckon I'd windmill him and have him out in a couple of rounds.

Well I wouldn't have been worried about audley hitting me!!! hahahahaha!

I would focus on landing two jabs a round.
