So what did this do for a Heavyweight Unification bout? I mean it may have gotten the average British fan a bit more worked up but IMO the result was already known before the bell rang and its not like Audley tested the WBA title holder at all, its not like Audley controlled distance and pace for a time and the title holder had to work for a win. I just don't see how this fight helps out the WBA title holder other than by lining his pockets.

Same can certainly be said about the Chisora fight, but that's just a glorified sparring session IMO because Manny Steward wants to tweak the Champ's style so there is a purpose to the fight other than just money.
