Haye/Harrison Press conference tomorrow

[boxingbantz]

I think it will finally sink in when I see those two clowns in the same room that it really IS happening. I always hoped it was a smokescreen for someone else but, no, David Haye REALLY is cleaning up the division - by fighting Audley Harrison.

What a chicken.

Yeah, it's beyond lame isn't it. A fighter who fights twice a year tops and wants to be retired in a handful of fights going on to fight.....Audley Harrison? The public are mugs and he knows it.

Now we will have two months of Sky hyping this fight up, adverts all over the channels, weekly updates from Sky Sports News about this "BATTLE OF BRITAIN". The non hardcore public will lap it up.

It's speculated that the fight will be november the 13th so that doesn't allow 2 months.


Heres one think that's gonna piss you all off. I bet you audley harrison gets into the ring in better shape than peter or briggs do when against either of the klits.

Mate, correct me if I am wrong but it is September 7th now, the fight is November 13th - that is just OVER two months.

Let's not be pedantic, eh?

[ross]

Yep, I bet harrison has been training since he heard the possibility over a month ago

Harrison does have stamina for a man his size, whereas Haye has had to plod to last a distance. Im actually looking forward to it. At least with Harrison we have a genuine puncher against Hayes week chin, unlike Ruiz and Valuev (who can both punch but Harrisons punches have to be regarded as more of a threat).

Harrison is 6,5", and a southpaw with a bit of skill, stamina and power. This could well be a nightmare for Haye.

[rjj tszyu]

Oh dear me. I really hoped this was going to be someone else, but well Haye has let us down with his choice of opponent here.

[amat]

Hornfinger and Lyle ticklefight coming. Peter would mow down Audley Harrison. Even a 267 pound Harrison. What's good looking in good shape if you don't throw punches? It's a money fight apparently, he's fighting because Harrison gets him good money. If it's happening in November, it's not the worst fight in the world.

Wlad is fighting Peter out of need, he had a better opponent lined up and he didn't want to fight. Peter is serviceable, at least he has a huge punch and isn't afraid to pull the trigger (except against Vitali, that was shit.) Harrison is an awful opponent. He's no worse then Sosnowski (unreal), Peter Okhello (haha this was a giant joke) and there is a slight possibility he miiiiight be better then Shannon Briggs.


However if Haye and Vitali fought, I would actually root for Haye.

[boxingbantz]

Haye will win this within four rounds.

However, if Harrison manages, somehow, to land the same punch that he knocked out Sprott with, it is lights out David Haye.

Haye lying face down on the canvas, Harrison jumping up onto the turnbuckle, arms aloft, the WBA belt in one of his hands - it won't get much better than that!

I agree with the first paragraph but whole heartedly disagree with the second, unless you want someone like tyson fury fighting for the title which would probably be harrison's first defence (realistically though it would be a rematch with haye).

It's obvious that haye has nothing to gain in this fight but absolutely everything to lose. From that point of view it's a silly fight to take.

Well, Peter lost to Harrison in the Olympic warm ups and his huge punch couldnt make a dent then.

[Saddo]

Pointless, Pointless fight.

it tells me that Haye aint as confident as he seems because this really is a no win fight for him....

if he wins people will say.... so what.

if he loses he will become the laughing stock of the whole boxing world ((and he could lose))

fighters know what they have to offer... remember when Tyson took on Danny Williams to a host of critic's... Tyson knew why he took that fight and the world did after

massive fight in the uk but i doubt the rest of the world will even blink

It might seem pointless but it's easy money for Haye before he risks it all against a Klitschko.
