audley harrison v martin rogan

[Scrap]

Funso I know what you mean, but Harrison wins. He better had

[josh fg]

Rogan is still a novice

and hes already been in a lot deeper than harrison at this stage

At this stage? So he has already fought men as good as Williams and Guinn? Thought not.

The thing with Harrison as with Khan is that some boxing fans are like kids who are into a certain type of music and then when a couple of bands from the scene brake through to more general aclame they say they are shit and have sold out... Much like I felt when the Offspring releced pretty fly for a white guy! therefore they react over negativly to fighters who are well know in the media... its bad for the sport guys stop it!

[josh fg]

Rogan will try to land one and as usual AH will back off afraid of being hit. If it goes all the way AH will get the decision having landed enough clean shots on the retreat. AH could get a stoppage win but I cant see him getting a KO. Could be a better fight than we think. OK age, and just 10 fights, it looks just one way but I dont think it will be. I think Rogan will put in the fight of his life.

Rogan's no better than Dominic Negus, and even an old but experienced Audley is better than the novice Audley who handled Negus fairly easily.

Yeah but Negus is the hardest man to walk GB and the udisputed super cruiserweight world champ and undisputed unlicensed world champ, thats got to count for something?

I'm not convinced the unlicensed authorities are any less corruped than the licesned ones

[josh fg]

Yeah of course they are

Don't worry Irony

Has Rees been replaced on this card by Stephen Forster or are my eyes playing silly beggers.

According to my eyes Rees is still on it! Also Curtis Woodhouse I thought he'd given up on boxing?

I see Macklin re-signed with sports network.

Rogan has his work cut out in this one - A perfect return for Audley

Go Audley! 2008 Undisputed Champion wasn't it? Halfway through the year fighting at the Aston Events Centre.

Funny on the original press release it was taking place at the National indoor arena (anyone go there to watch Gladioators in their youth) unless Im being thick and they are both the same places.

Hardly! It used to be called the Aston Villa Leisure Centre.

Strange that Enzo's comeback is in a place like this, its all well and good laughing that Audey's comeback is here but he isnt the headline event, I would expect Enzo to be the headliner.

I don't know that he's a massive draw independently, he has always seemed to be on bills with Calzaghe not headlining his own bill. I think if Warren could have sold out a comparible venue with his fans he wouldn't have fought Haye at the O2

You've got no class

[oliverfennell]

Rogan is still a novice

and hes already been in a lot deeper than harrison at this stage

Ibbs, Ferguson, Bessey etc are no better than Krence, Negus, Long and others Audley fought in his first 10. In fact, if Audley had fought these guys even as a novice, he'd have predictably been criticised.

I understand people don't like Audley, but you're supposed to be knowledgeable fans on here. Hatred for Audley often seems to distort the evidence, though!

Excellent way of looking at it, Josh.

I liked Audley and Amir before they were famous!

I think they should focus on PHOTOSHOPPING IN AN OPPONENT'S NAME FIRST.

I heard he's fighting Franks fave fighter Terry Bartholom Cooper

[Old bones Ian]

Rogan has had Terry Dunstan in for sparring, not so sure he can replicate Harrisons style that much

Didn't realise Dunstan was out, how is he keeping these days?

[josh fg]

Audley reckons he's still a force against heavywieght champs (was he a force at professional level ever!?)

If rogan wins, would it get him a big fight?

And if Audley won, what are the chances of him actually getting a title fight?

Well I think he could get a european shot reasonably easy, beond that the HW devision isn't full of talent but he needs to be a lot more active than he is. The fact Haye went straight into the WBC rankings at 5 shows that the devision is pretty bare and a couple of good wins can put anyone (with the right profile in the sport and the right promoter) in the frame for a shot.

I've just seen a couple of reports of Rogan sparring, apparently its been quite competitive with Dunstan.

Why is Enzo wearing a belt on the poster he no longer owns
