I wouldn't mind seeing the fight, Harrison with his long reach and ametre jab happy style would be pretty good preperation for the Klitschkos it'd be a well watched fight and if he wins, having fought Valueve, Barrett, Ruiz and the European champion in Harrison no one could argue that Haye hadn't earned the right to be in the ring with Klitschko.

On the other hand part of me would like to see Haye against a solid up and comming young american heavyweight contender ether.

While I certainly agree that Haye has earned a shot at either brother, I would like to know how beating Monte Barrett and Audley Harrison really means anything.

Audley is not even a top 30 heavyweight, fighting him would be a joke, even if he beat Sosnowski. This would a sideshow bout for Haye. The Klitschko's get a lot of flack on here but they have not faced an opponent as poor as Harrison in years.

Of course Audley doesn't deserve it but I'd still like to see it - but only if it happened in the summer and left Haye (assuming he wins) free for a fight against one of the Klitschko's in the autumn/winter.

Yes Audley continually fails to deliver but the man does still intrique me.

Heavyweight is a week devision and beating someone who's top 15 (probably) rated and the European champion means more alone than anyone Arrolia fought.

Beating the European champion (the best European fighters, which are numerous in the HW division are competing on the world scene) means nothing when they are not even a top thirty fighter and Walker, Witherspoon, and McCline were all on par with Barrett when he fought Haye.

Haye deserves his shot but its not like beating Harrison is going to strengthen his claim or add to his credentials.

As a stay busy fight if he spanks ruiz ina couple of rounds. Straight back into camp and fight within 3 months. Most defienetly not if he beats Ruiz then takes 4 months out then a 3 month training camp!

If Audley can put a couple of good wins together (Sosnowski followed by Boytsov/Ustinov/Platov/VALUEV.... :OhYes: ) then Haye-Aud is a fight I'd like to see

The thing is if he gets by Albert (perfectly feasible but far from a certainty) and fights a beatable European name in germany, you can bet your left ventricle he'll go into his shell and lose a points verdict.

Yes, purely so Haye can finally shut him up and knock some sense into Audley and his self-proclaimed world title chances...

Yes. Why not?

I honestly think it would be a pretty even fight.

The size difference alone makes it interesting.

AH has power sotuhpaw stance and a good reach and mobility. If he catches Haye reaching it could be all over.

Haye could also spark him in one round.

Very interesting fght for the BRITISH FANS.

Yes. Should have added .. for the British fans.

TBH neither Haye or Audley are big names in the division to appeal to fans outside of Britain.

If Haye fights Wlad or Vitali it will be huge all around the world - Haye is a big name after the Valuev win and not just in the UK.

Haye v Audley - yes I would watch it but Audley doesn't deserve a title shot and I think Haye would put him on his back within 4 rounds.

Not really.

I don't like seeing fighters who have not earned a shot at a "world" title being given the chance.

If it does happen, Haye stops him within 3 rounds.

Haye v Harrison

Post by SteveDow »

If this fight happens does anyone think Audley has a chance of winning? Even though Haye should win easily, I have a funny feeling that Harrison could cause him some trouble.
