By "other contenders" I meant anyone else in the division, but yeah him too.

There are better fighters for him to chose from other than Audley that would help him prepare for Wlad in height, style, and technique: Dimitrenko, Ray Austin, Tony Thompson, etc. but I suppose Audley is the one British fighter out of the lot that can serve as practice. Remember this dude fought Valuev, I don't see why he needs to fight someone tall again just for the sake of getting used to the size difference.
