    hit the nail on the head there fella,haye needs to chill the fk out

    lets look @ haye as a heavyweight barret had him on his arse, valuev lost to ruiz & holyfield really & is prob worst heavyweight champ of all time then defended against ruiz. come on is this really such a missmatch?

    That's what I said! And his fans are still all too eager to give him a pass "He needs to fight Audley for money and to build his fan base"...if you look at his fans' reaction to this fight he doesn't seem to be gaining any.

    And check this out:
    Monte Barrett 38 years old: 36(20 KO)-6
    Nicolay Valuev 36 years old: 50 (34 KO)-1
    John Ruiz 38 years old: 44 (30 KO)-8-1
    Audley Harrison 38 years old: 27 (20 KO)-4

    ...not exactly a who's who of the best fo the heavyweight division

    If I could just provide a bit of perspective here for the Non-Brit members here...

    Basically, Audley Harrison is still more of a recognisable name in Britain than David Haye.

    Why? I'm not sure... But it's true.

    Maybe it's a combination of being an Olympic Gold Meadlist (And thus initially getting a whole heap of media attention both as an amateur and as a Pro (A luxury that was always fading and then finally lost once he lost to Danny Williams).

    And also maybe because he's just been around for like a decade now?

    But either way, Audley is still ( ) that Boxer we (Brits) all know about. So for David Haye, this is about Domestic exposure, which for example, he would undoubtadly gain more of if he were to beat a 50 year old Frank Bruno than he would beating Wladimir Klitschko (again... )

    And the thing is, for me as a Brit, this fight is exciting.

    Am I embarrassed by that? As a so called hardcore boxing fan, you fucking bet I am but the truth is as far as domestic tear ups go (For which we Brits fuckin LOVE!) this is a bit of a biggie... We ain't had anything like this since Benn Eubank.

    Seriously

    Okay so it's not cool relative to the rest of the world but this fight (albeit for a 'World Belt') ain't for the world.

    It's for Britains eyes only



    Seriously, I think as the time draws near, this'll be a fight that will be getting ALOT of attention over here.

    i class this fight in the lennox lewis v frank bruno bracket, only the brits were really interested in that fight

    except david haye is better than bruno
    & harrison is better than lennox lewis

    Any heavy weight puncher has a chance against a week cruiser weight chin
