I agree Ice, people have lost their minds in a desire to have in their heads a decent matchup. Just not going to happen though. It is a joke matchup. An old man in Harrison taking on a relatively decent heavyweight.Quote:

I guess the British media is just really good at hyping shit up...I can imagine similar circumstances here in the US, but not to this degreeQuote:

The fight won't go longer than 3 rounds. FACT. Well it's not a fact, it's an accurate prediction.
...and that's when the media will really run wild :vd:Quote:

I want to trust you Al, but I just have a feeling that a dominant performance vs Audley Harrison will be too good for the British Media (and the WBA title holder) to pass up a huge celebration and the reality of the situation.Quote:

you watch Beaches? Suppose it's more interesting than watch wlad box....
When Wlad fights he doesn't need a plot line he just fights....this isn't supposed to be pro wrestling, it's boxing and it's tragic that this fight is coming off to begin with but the worst part is in order to justify the match happening they had to make up some ridiculous story. Gee I sure hope the dress rehearsals for this fight go as planned :rolleyes:Quote:

After seeing how packed that arena was for WK's last fight... I have to agree with Lyle.
Am going to this one and am 90% certain thiswill end in 1-2 rounds (am going for the atmosphere rather than the fight itself - I hope their ringwalks are entertaining !)
But with Haye expectd to end it early and if he doesn't.... you cant help but thing Audley may just one day go for it :rolleyes:
But then again...
Haye in 2
Agreed Miles i don't get it myself, all because he KO'ed a C class fighter in Michael Sprott. A fighter he really shouldn't of needed to rematch, nor should he be losing to on points. And a fighter he shouldn't be fighting at this stage.Quote:

Considering he was an Olympic gold medalist, he should of been a world champ now. What a total disappointing career for Audley Harrison.
I don't think he's really cut out for professional boxing, he seems to have some of the tools. But he lacks the real killer instinct, and the heart that a successful professional needs.
