audley harrison total crap

i always knew this guy was a joke, his best skill was talking crap which sums him up as a boxer, shame on those who gave him tv deals and promoted his fights and made and gace him money, he still claims he's goner be world champ what a joke.

when people in the usa say british heavyweights are a joke its because of bs artists like harrison, maybe one day the british boxing scene will start backing heavys who can atleast fight and not spend 12 rounds runing away like a scared chicken.

audley says it took frank bruno 4 cracks untill he won the title, yeah but frank ko'd every cannon fodder in 2 rounds or less and when he lost it was to world champions, lets hope this guy is never seen in the ring again

Yeah Harrison is a boring, hesitant bastard. Never impressed me. And if he was half as good as he says he is, he would not have lost to Danny Williams or Domink Guinn.

If Audley is to come back he needs to get the right people around him.

He needs people who are going to make him work for himself and them, and make sure he has the desire.

Theres no doubt I feel if he had this desire, he could pick up a World Championship in this terrible state of the Heavywieght division, its just whether he wants to.

He obviously has enough money now and doesnt need it, it just depends if he has his pride, which apparently...he doesnt :-X

no chance this z grade and thats in this pot of heavyweights, can become world champ never he's to crap, i don't were people get the idea he is a skill boxer, who's he ever beaten

butterbean would eat this guy anaconda style

You cant even see if he has skill because he doesnt try.

He is a GOLD MEDALIST

I am not standing up for him.

But behind all that moping around and lack of heart, I think he has "some" skill to at least get back into the mix.

He simply doesnt want it.

He wants his money.

He doesnt want to be hit.

He doesnt want to be hurt.

He does least as possible and hopes for a knockout punch.

It doesnt come, he picks up his profit, and doesnt seem to care about his pride.

he has the talent, maybe if Manny Steward trained him he would turn out to be a good heavyweight...
but atm he's only on the downslide

Good Point The_One77.

Its just is any GOOD trainer going to want to take on someone who obviously has no desire :(

i've seen this fake go 10 rounds with a part time boxer who was having his first fight in 2 years, the guy was out of shape had no skill no punch and 0 footwork but he had audley in some truble in the first 4 rounds then ran out of steam, and audley failed to beat him inside the distance.

harrison has never show anything in any fight, his wins have been against 40 something no bodys, part timers. the manner of which he has spoken of himself and trashed other boxer is a disgrace

For the last time, Audrey not Audley

I think if he got R Lee Ermy to train him, and then flew to Siberia and runs up that mountain a la Rocky, then he could come back, get in the ring and... eh, he'd still suck...

It's Audley.

He needs a trainer that can break his spirit and leave him nothing. And then build him back up. Like Teddy Atlas.

He's in for the money.
you can see in the ring he has no desire to box or fight.
I cant believe he won gold at the olympics,
i could beat him and im only 160 lbs

harrison is total crap....he wont get back into the fray now....its impossible. he's too old to change those flaws now...

he only won gold medal because there were no usa super heavys and the kid he beat in the final had to hold down 2 jobs to pay his way whille audley had sponsorship from the natinal lottery, he train with the olypic team at million £ camp with top trainers, they even payed for him to spar with danny williams, its since then they hate each other

The fact that there were no good heavies that year, harrison had age, experience and size on every body might of helped him slightly ;)

The one eyed man is king in the land of the blind ;)

To be honest Audley has had the skills anyone who disrespects his achievments at the Olympics needs to go back and watch the tapes, becasue he has some serious quick skills with a tremendous reach, i just dont know whats happened to him he was out injured for a long time about 18 months ago maybe that has something to do with it, i dont question his physical atributes at all because i still say he has some of the best skills when he uses them than the majority if not all the heavyweights.

But something has gone a miss over the last two years or so because even though he was fighting bums he was showing some good skills but his last two fights he has looked a different fighter, did something happen in his personal life while he was out of the ring or something we dont know of??

Who knows but he is kidding himself if he thinks he will be the Champ becasue he has had a chance to redeem himself and didnt do anything so what will be different next time??

Retire and leave the game my friend

no matter how you look at it harrison beat calvin brock in the olympics and now brock is rated as a good up and coming heavyweight so the ability must be there. he needs to stop hiding behind his medal and regain his hunger and drive to be a champ. his career is badly scarred but not shattered yet he can still be a champ if he regains his focus and picks the right fight.


BTW he's still a lazy bitch

I think a fight with Sam Peter would be a step in the right direction, but he could well be knocked the fuck out.

he won the gold medal but i never saw him as being the best fighter there, he never stood out as a true champ.

de la hoya won a world title after 10 fights after the olympics, holyfield was world champ after 12 once he came back from the olympics, fernado vargas made world champ on his 15th fight again after the gold medal and Jeff Fenech came home from the olympics and on his 7th pro fight became world champ, these guys all looked world class inthe build up to there title fights

audley has been crap against everyone he's fought, his first 19 fights were against no bodies even there neighbours never knew who those guys were, he fought Julius Francis who was once british champ, against audley he was 39, 2 stone over weight had 1 week notice for the fight and had lost his last 6 and audley could only win on points. he only fought danny williams because he thought williams was finished had he known danny still had some juice he never would have got in the ring with him

I agree with some of your opinions, but he was a good ameateur and beat some good guys including Sam Peter, he was the favourite for the Gold medal in his weight class from the off, so maybe in your opinion he wasn't the best in Sydney but the general opinion was he was the man to beat at the 2000 Olympics.

i respect anyone who wins a tournament, even more when its in boxing because its like no other sport. he was beaten by sinan samil sam in the amatures and never went near him in the pro's.

in my opinian amature is one thing pro another

amatures---- a man his size should do well because he's got 4 2minute rounds he can jab and cross the hell out of you because as you all know, body shots don't score so he wont get hit by many so the smaller guys have a tough time landing head shots on him, he will get the win by points. the kid he beat in the final was half his size and couldn't land any head shots, sinan samil sam is around 6'4 and comes stright at you.

i'm willing to bet sam peter would beat him easy in the pro ranks, but we'll never see the fight because audley would never sign the contract due to his being a coward

Again i agree with alot of your stuff, you make sense but to say he never went near Sam?? Audrey has only stepped up to anywhere near that level in his last two fights, if anything he is still not experienced to be fighting you Guinn's and Sam's he has only had 21 fights. Sam was fighting a WBC Eliminator in his last fight, the problem with Audrey is he is 34 and has no time to change things. He was fighting Wiggins only last year!!!!

thats right he never beat an american on route to his gold medal because there were non at super heavy, but like i said amautre is one thing pro another

sam turned pro around the sam time as audley and was euro champ 2 and a half years later and was the first fighter to knockout williams he also ko'd julius francis and is ranked in the wbc also he is seen as one of the best 3 fighters in euro, that shows a big difference in class

sam ko'd williams at a time when frank warren offered audley half a million pounds to fight him and audley didn't want it even though he said after his first pro fight that he could beat danny in his next fight

theres alot of big guys in the amatures who kick butt and i've already said why, then they turn pro and get there ass beat. amature and pro are almost 2 different sports in boxing
