audley who next

[Mr Butt]

i would like to see audley fight the winner of fury vs mcdermott and if he wins what about a tua fight ,time is not on audley's side he has to take a few risk's and tua is a name

what fights do you think audley should take

[doug.ie]

I think same as you mr butt

[ero-sennin]

agree, Fury McDermott winner.

[Geiger]

If Rogan regains the commonwealth title, how about a rematch? Another collision of prizefighter winners :o

[achillesthegreat]

tua would kill him. fury or mcd yes.

[Mr Butt]

i think you are proably right but he has to move quickly and take chances

[John18]

For Audley, I think a fight with Fury would be perfect, good exposure and winnable as Tyson is still a novice.

Maybe not a great choice for Fury though, unless he improves a lot in the gym and fancies his chances.

I think realistically the best Audley can hope for is Euro level as his deficiencies take too much away from his other almost-world-class attributes.

IMO

[11player]

Winner of Fury vs Mcdermot is a good choice.

Bad matchup against Rogan IMO, he would lose again, but if Sexton wins the fight then it's a good option.

Trying to grab an european belt, against Pianeta or the winner of Sosnowsky vs Vidoz, souds like a good option too.

Big punchers and gutsy fighters should be avoided.

[Unforgiven]

He should fight the winner of Fury-McDermott, or the winner of Rogan or Sexton. See if he can beat those guys.

If he wants to move up in class, seeing an old Evander Holyfield or James Toney beat him in a few rounds would be entertaining and put him back into perspective. I wouldn't wish David Tua on him though, I'm not a true Audley hater.

what about samuel peter unforgiven

[John18]

Peter is just as bad. Regardless of what Audley says, he does need to build his confidence. A win over a Fury/Sexton type guy will help with that, but I wouldn't put him near Peter or anyone else at even fringe world class untill he had proven to himself that he can cut it at Euro level.

Going from a win over, say, Sexton to a guy like Peter/Tua/Ruiz would be madness.

[Unforgiven]

what about samuel peter unforgiven

Peter is pretty bad and he's going down not up, my estimation of him during his career has dropped even more dramatically than that of Harrison.

I'd actually give Audley a chance, but a slim one. Any amount of pressure seems to ruffle Audley, and Peter could walk through his punches. I think Audley could possibly outbox him, but not for a full ten rounds, or even for a full 3 minutes of a round. Even a slobbish Peter would get him out of their sometime, in all likelihood, or just intimidate Harrison so much he'd win a laclustre points decision.

Harrison should stick to 3-round fights against amateurs and novices. It's always been his forte.

[achillesthegreat]

i think you are proably right but he has to move quickly and take chances

given guinn's recent 3 fight run i would say that is the perfect place to start. if he can avenge that loss i think it shows some worth again. same with rogan. i can never look at him as anything more if he can't beat that world gatekeeper level type fighter.

[destruction]

Harrison is not even British title level class.

He first fought for the title and lost to Danny Williams.

He then fought against a journeyman in Guinn (who has 3 losses and 1 draw from his last 5 fights) and lost again.

This dropped him below the level of British title class.

Then getting KTFO and brutally by Sprott in 3 rounds spelled the end of him as a british level title challenger.

He has also lost against the limited journeyman Rogan since then.

The fact that he has won the 20-20 challenger against area level fighers just proves his abillity, that he is fringe british title level.


If Harrison gets beyond British title level from here then I will be very surprised. Even winning the European title for him will be a massive achievement.

Stop begin so deluded Audley.

[StevenB]

An Audley Harrison v Sam Peter fight has the potential to be the biggest stinker of all time!

Agree with the earlier post - Harrison should avoid punchers and pressure fighters. I don't know if it's just me, but he does look genuinely scared at times in the ring, more than any other fighter I can think of.

I think the fact that Fury couldn't break an egg would mean that Audley would probably edge a decision against him. McDermott would be a tough fight because he'd come straight at Audley, but again I see Audley winning on pts.

If Tua fought Audley, it would end up on you tube on those 'funniest knockouts of all time' compilations.

I'm actually pleased for the bloke that he won the other night after all the abuse he got, but I still don't see where he has to go. As soon as he comes up against someone half decent and who can punch, he will fall short.

[Flea Man]

Audley doesn't need to take on the likes of Peter and Tua. he has no chance of winning. he has NO CHANCE of winning a World title and should stick to domestic matches.

Fury-McDermott winner is a good idea. At most a fight with Frans Botha. But not Tua, who showed the other night that unless you've got the dig to hurt him he's gonna walk straight through ya'. I'm not certain that Audley is much better than Shane Cameron anyway.


Jeez, rant over :good

[kurt2006]

If people thought Johnny Nelson first big belt shot was a stinker can you imagine what audrey would do if he faced Tua. The guy was bricking his pants against regional level fighters when they pressed the action, against Tua I think audrey would literally shit his pants and then blame it on the BBC.

Regardless of power, its workrate that does Audley's head in. Fury would be a nightmare for him, being taller and throwing anything would negate Audley stepping in with his jab, Fury probably has the chin to take Audley's best. Over ten I don't see Audley winning a decision, unlike McDermott he doesn't have 'that'. The ability to think 'fuck this, this guy can't punch I'm goin for it.'

Audley is more 'fuck it, that guys throwing punches WHAT DO I DO??!!?!?'

[El Cepillo]

Tua would MURDER Audley. :lol:

He should fight Fury. Hopefully it will be a double KO and they'll both retire.

[djb2009]

Rogan

[deebest]

He needs to act quick and get in the ring in the next 3 months. I didnt like the fact that he was talking about taking a break after Prizefighter. If he is serious about winning a title which I don't think he has a hope of doing he should be straight back in the Gym and organising his next fight. Fury won't go near him McDermott probably would but that would be 6 months away. He can't wait six months. The winner of the Rogan v Sexton fight is my obvious choice and a fight he could probably win. Then he needs to be looking well up the world rankings where Im affraid he comeback will probably end.

[mcguirpa]

Fury won't go near him

You're kidding!

Fury would fight him next Saturday if it could be arranged. It couldn't be arranged of course, simply because Harrison has peanuts for balls and a pea for a heart.

Get it on the Froch undercard I say.

[alba]

get audley in with Michael sprott...a rematch wouldent excite the boxing world ,but then waht fight involving fraudley would?

sprott would be a good oppertunity for him and would be a good measure of how far he has got left .a bit more realistcly than some of the other choices ..

I don't think Fury is ready to fight Audley ? He would walk on to a punch. Plus Im not sure Fury has a huge amount of power. I like Fury but just think he needs time and at least 10 more fights.

[richard mossley]

But Audley specifically stated he was having a long rest. I cant see him fighting until next summer.

[Mr Butt]

i agree that audley will only look good against low level opponents and that any fighter that puts him under pressure will probably beat him so please dont think i was saying he would beat tua it was just a name to throw in as audley is getting on in age so he has to move quickly although audley probably dont see it that way

[Mazallan]

Vitali has no one lined up next.

[El Cepillo]

Vitali has no one lined up next.

A-Force via KO1

[pne buz]

I dont particularly care who the waster fights and im suprised anybody else does.The guy has no bottle or heart and is not going anywhere(which he has proved on numerous occasions).

[Ilesey]

Tua would have Harrison out in the first round. However, sticking him in with the winner of Fury - McDermott and then the winner of Rogan - Sexton for the British title.

[hit me HARDER]

Audley's got undoubted ability, but I could see Tua doing him some serious damage.

[11player]

Audley vs Danny for the british belt, is that a waste of time now?

Maybe he will have to get one more win in the domestic scene (Sprott, Skelton, Danny) to be able to land a meaningfull fight, as aside Danny, there were no good names at the prizefighter group.

Anyway, he should ride the good moment and set something up for not later than 4 months away.

IMO:
Good matchups:
- winner of Fury-McDermott;
- Sexton if he wins against Rogan;
- Pianeta for an european belt; winner of Sosnowsky-Vidoz for an european belt; SSSam for an european belt;
- Meehan/Ruiz/KJ/Austin/Toney for a high world ranking;
- Valuev for the WBA belt

Bad Matchups:
- Rogan
- Tua/Peter/Arreola/Briggs/Boytsov/Povetkin/Brewster/Solis/Ustinov

Future (if he wins a couple of meaningfull good bouts)
- Haye
- The Klitchkos

[Mazallan]

I can not see any of the current heavy weights in Europe or north America beating Audley.

[zulander]

He just hasnt got it has he?
He scored some classy knockdowns in prizefighter but he waits too long to long to let his hands go and doesnt throw enuff punches. His right hand is just used as a measuring stick now its not even a jab.
His best bet would be to get a fight for the british belt and then maybe an european title shot win that and call it quits at least then his career wouldnt have been a total failure

[leighton]

What about a fight with Matt Skelton before Xmas if he is still boxing he needs to keep active and it will be a test for him and then take on the winner of the Rogan fight. Never mind Tyson Fury it would be crazy for Fury to go in with Harrison at this time.

[robpalmer135]

i reckon we could see Audley on Barry Hearn undercards from now on.

skelton has retired.

Audley needs to go beyond british title he doesnt need to waste time. just gotta go for broke.

Davaryll Williamson, Brian Minto, Taras Bidienko, Ray Austin are all top 10 ranked. Beat a few of these and make an offer to a champion for a fight. If Audley really want to be world champion he should be prepared to dig into his deep pockets to get a shot.

[Mazallan]

Silly question but does Barry Hearn still do fight cards that are not the prizefighter events?

I know Audley mentioned going with Hearn and working together.

[Farmboxer]

Boytsov

[leforge]

Yes Barry does not Prizefighter cards, Simpson V truscott 2, Daws v Morrison 2 sop far this new season.

[China Rich]

i think pianeta for the EU belt is a winnable fight for A-Farce at this time, and probably about as far as he'll ever get.

failing that, he could always try to reclaim his WBF 'world' title from francois botha then go after the holders of the WBU, IBC and GBU belts...

[Mazallan]

Yes Barry does not Prizefighter cards, Simpson V truscott 2, Daws v Morrison 2 sop far this new season.

:huh

[punk]

Why not Chris Arreola?

[DamonD]

I don't think Rogan is such a bad fight for Audley, if he put in just 10% more effort he could've won that fight. He had Rogan shaken in the second or third round but couldn't finish.

Rogan/Sexton winner would be good, as would the Fury/McDermott winner.

I would say go for those, trying to charge off after a world top ten guy is just asking for disaster again at this point. A 10-12 rounder against a fellow UK heavyweight would be smarter.

[robpalmer135]

[Only registered and activated users can see links]

looks like hearn might get behind him. he is promoting a euro title fight this year so maybe get Audley on the undercard there, followed by the fight with the winner.

he hasnt got time to waste. personally i think Audley vs a journeyman and audley vs a top 10 fighter wouldnt be to different.

:good

or just aim at the British title.
