Audley Receives Deontay Wilder Offer For Khan-Diaz - Boxing News

Wow, I know Deontay wanted to step up but this is a death wish. Audley KO 2.

If Audley rejects this, Martin Rogan has said he would accept the fight.

[Beanz]

Uhm....don't quite know what to make of this.

[Fenster]

If Audley gets hypnotised into believing it's Prizerfighter he'll beat Wilder easily.

[Mark TKO]

if this is genuine what choice has Audley got - actually its only 5 weeks though, he won't fancy it

Pathetic. I hope Audley accepts and then somehow upsets the plastic apple cart.

It's like a terribly bad joke, all you can do is cringe and wish you hadn't heard it.
Deontay Wilder is incapable of anything but baby steps.
It's like Wilder and his team are afraid, no terrified that he will actually get in a fight.

It's times like this I respect Ray Mercer all over again. Within a year and a half of turning pro and only his 16th start he was going to war with a tip top Bert Cooper over 12 grueling rounds.

Wilder is determined to pick over the battlfield for lose change and gold fillings before even thinking about climbing the mountain.

I'll never forget the Cooper/Dewitt fight. I had high hopes for Willie. Wilder has got to be chinless or something. Maybe he's getting dropped by cruisers at the gym while wearing head gear. Audley is a safe bet as all they have to do is overwhelm him like Haye did and land a crippling shot. I started off being a fan of the guy but now he's beginning to enter my top 5 want to see ktfo list. Now perhaps I should not blame him personally but blame his steering committee however to be coddled this much in this heavyweight wasteland suggests something. Audley has to take this and I hope he lands one of those beautiful textbook straight lefts he was so capable of earlier in his career.

[Fenster]

To be fair to Wilder, he's being added to Golden Boy's British bill as an undercard attraction for Khan, so it makes sense he fights a Brit name as that will create much more interest.

It's not like he's headlining the promotion

[Vendettos]

This is why I made a thread about how Audley is dangerous right now.

Because if Wilder loses to Price, Fury, Haye, Thompson or Chisora even, then it's a recoverable loss.

If he loses to Harrison his career is pretty much over.

Audley take it, put on the long awaited performance and maybe end your career with some dignity intact.

[Kirkland Laing]

Wilder can punch, which means the shitting-himself Audley will get in the ring for this fight and it'll be all over superquick. Can't see Audley taking this one for the likely money on offer, he'll make more elsewhere.

Good point.

[Tam Seddon]

Fraudley will get KTFO if fights Wilder and Rogan does as well, Fraud will fall quicker though, Rogan maybe a round or two later.

[Freedom]

Harrison said today on twitter that he has agreed to take the fight, although he said there are still a few details to be worked out before it's official.

After his impressive performance in Prizefighter, Audley is the next logical step up for Deontay Wilder.

It's good that Deontay's promoter is keeping him active. It saddens me that promising heavyweights like Mike Perez and Bogdan Dinu are being ruined by inactivity.
