Re: junior witter (what next)

Read in The Times yesterday that he needs operation on cruciate ligament injury he got while playing footy, think career could be decided on outcome of that and not what happens in ring

Where's Audley Gone?

Re: Jones/Green spoiler!!

sad to see but thank f*ck it ended quick. Over 5 years since RJJ went against Tarver at LH and has declined since, felt sorry for him when he was almost schooled by JC so the step up against Cruiser who can bang was going to be difficult after bad few years.

Green/Hide anyone?

Re: When will Harrison v Fury be arranged?

won't happen, Albert the pole wins EBU title this month then fights Audley (currently ranked 8ish by EBU), Tyson beats McD then waits for mandatory Williams/Sexton winner. Audley running out of time and fight with Tyson serves him no purpose

Re: If you managed Audley Harrison

glory or bust fight against Tomasz Ademek (06 Feb); blown up cruiserweight, good record, world champion, good ratings and means Audley doesn't have to leave America. If wins then could propel him to some sort of eliminator as govering bodies like giving their champs good ratings when they move up in...

Re: Martin Rogan: The Scandal

The scandal is with our domestic division and the lack of depth it offers, we have a relative novice as english champion and a beaten man as british champi...

Re: Harrison vs Haye?

Audley spent to much time believing his own hype and not enough time training and boxing.

Haye will also make mo...

Re: How Did Tyson Fury get on ?

think the Ellis fight took it out of him and needs time to recover, 50 seconds of beating someone up aint easy; just ask Froch, he beat Taylor up for 2 minutes and looked f*cked.
