Should be confirmed soon its David Haye v Audley Harrison 13th November M.E.N Arena

[Mark TKO]

This fight is only credible cos of Audley Harrison's name.

Had he gone after Sprott if Sprott had won then no that would have been a very bad thing !

I bet theres more non boxing fans in UK that know who Audley is over Haye.

I think this will be an exciting fight and all I'm saying is it won't do boxing's appeal in Britain any harm and to me thats a good thing - won't happen but if this could have been on terrestrial tv over here would attract a new generation of fans to the sport.

i said in another thread months ago that i would not be surprised if this happened. David Haye's credibility is totally gone and its a complete slap in the face to true boxing fans. Anyone who spends their hard-earned cash to watch this needs to give their head a good shake. A total and utter disgrace. I cant wait to hear Hayes spin on this, i really cant. They are taking people on.

What annoys me is it is the fight that Sky want him to take too. I mean Haye should bowl Audley over in the first 2 rounds and the undercard will be shit shit and yet we'll have to pay £15 for it. Lets just hope Manny - Marg has more to offer than it perhaps should.

I will be buying it though.

Haye's going to make good money and he's going to look good doing it with "Audley". Then he'll be open for Wladimir. Then we'll get a clash of the chinny titans and everyone will forget all of the hate and waiting.

....that's what was said after the Barrett fight, after the Valuev fight, and after the Ruiz fight....but I suppose this time is different

It's the way the world works. Mark my words, have some bran until they come true.

...the way boxing works is that fighter A that's ducking fighter B until the money is "right" gets stopped by some shmuck before the "megafight" happens....that's the way boxing works. This ain't the movies, and I'm not saying Audley will be the one to upset the apple cart, but I HIGHLY doubt this fight happens before Chicken Little loses his first heavyweight bout.

I think Niko's girl is right but still, it's kind of ridiculous nonetheless. It's pretty much been broken promise after broken promise from Haye since he fought Enzo. I think if Wlad would have offered to fight him on that escalator during their first confrontation, Haye would have found a way to say that that escalator just wasn't right and he would rather fight in a escalator where more people could watch and one that moved down instead of up. It's nuts, this thing just needs to happen.

However, after Haye blitzes Harrison (haha @ anyone giving Harrison even the slightest of chances), there will be plenty of people criticizing him in this thread and others who will then give Haye a better shot to beat Wlad if they ever meet.

My beef is that the fight is just so extraordinarily meaningless. I mean, what schlups are really going to want to pay for this farce? Nobody in their right mind seriously expects it to go more than 3 rounds. Maybe Haye will carry Audley to the 6th and end it there. But Harrison will probably collapse regardless before it even gets to that point. It's a farcical matchup. The worst in recent memory. You can understand a fighter coming back after a loss taking such a fight, but not a fighter who has an unbeaten run and already had an easy fight since winning the belt.
