Don't care how they try to talk it up as a grudge match it stinks, what has Harrison done to get a shot anyway, win Prizefighter by beating some fat gypsy bloke ?

Its going to be a boring one sided win for Wlad.
I really hope Haye does a job on Harrison. Harrisons a never been, as others are stating, surely a lose/lose for Haye, of course this will carry a purse.
Anyone watching that 7 fighter competition? I think its box office.

As for the fight last night it was sooo boring, Wlad could have stepped on the gas from about the 4th round on and got a early KO and actually make it entertaining, instead he just hugged and jabbed until Samuel was too knackered to do anything, then got the stoppage.
I do hope Haye blasts Harrison then gets in with Wlad, I think Haye at least has the speed and precision to at least land something on Wlads chin, whether its enough to win who knows but at least it will have some element of excitement to it.

If it was taking place on my balcony I'd draw the blinds, even in a terrible heavyweight division how on earth does Ordinary Harrison qualify for a shot ?
It also just makes all Hayes talk look stupid, it appears he's swerving the Klitchko's and taking an easy payday, fine if you aren't always gobbing off about taking on the best and not avoiding anybody.
£15 on PPV, let me tell where I am, I'm oot !

I'll get it as its something to watch but it is a bit of a joke of a fight.
Audley has been doing his usual talk to try and convince the public he has a chance but Audleys always been alot of talk and then does nothing in the ring to back up all his words.
I have watched some of the sparring training videos and the one thing that stands out to me is speed, Harrison plods around while Haye blasts the mitts with alot of speed and power while using alot of fast body movement, this fight is all wrong for Audley as he's going to try to be the counter puncher but he'll be too slow to pull it off, Haye will pile up the points if it actually goes past a few rounds, it won't take long for Haye to start landing meaningful punches, but Harrison will have to just hope for a miracle lucky punch to save the day.
