Harrison says Thompson knocked Haye down in sparring?

[Majesty]

If its true all I can think about is when Haye confronted Wlad and all he could do was bash tony Thompson saying he was a bum and "what has tony thompson ever done" if he was floored in sparring it makes those comments all the more hilarious if anyone can post up the video.

Tony Thompson has come out saying Haye looks superb in sparring (surprised how good he is) and Audley has no chance. No mention of him flooring Haye plus Haye himself said it was bollocks.

Audley's camp also said he sparked THREE sparrring partners in the same day.

Think they're having fun.

lol

i thought the very same thing when i first heard about this. If haye was indeed knocked down in training it would have absolutely no implication as to his level of performance in this fight and if anything could well show that haye is really going hard in training

People love to draw conclusions on these things and refer to past instances like tyson being dropped for the first time in his life just before the douglas fight. But it will have little or no effect on either fighter come the big night

It depends how hard he was hit, I know at least in amature if you take a big enough shot, you arent allowed to box for a certain period. Cant remember how long.

Thompson is being paid by Haye remember so he will say that Haye is looking good but also notice he didnt deny knocking him down

I heard the rumour about Harrison was that he dropped 4 different sparring partners at Spencer Fearons gym.

From what I read he wasn't asked about knocking Haye down so had nothing to deny. Wouldn't surprise me though as there's normally a smidgen of truth to most sparring tales.

So Harrison either SPARKED three sparring partners or DECKED four. Impressive.

We are both wrong! He neither sparked 3 nor decked 4.



"Big fights always generate rumours and, according to Spencer Fearon, the former London light-middleweight making his way as a promoter, Harrison "sparked" four sparring partners at his Real Fight Club gym in Liverpool Street on Thursday night."
