In the end the gulf in class was embarrassingly obvious. Audley Harrison (27-5) talked a good talk like so many under-achieving fighters but David Haye (25-1) once again showed the world he has the power to blast through the heavyweight division with a third round stoppage of his old friend and retained his WBA Heavyweight title in the process.

All throughout Harrison’s professional career the believers, the doubters, the lovers and the haters have always screamed at him to throw more punches. To be more aggressive and to open up. And what we were treated to once again was a vanishing act from the 39-year old.

Destiny was crushed and harsh reality sunk in and it only took three rounds for this to be achieved in Haye’s second defence of his title. And from the onset it seemed like not if but when a ‘Hayemaker’ would land. In what was a bit of a non-event both men threw barely any leather in the opening round. The odd jab flicked out, Haye tried to steady himself for the big shots but the most eye-catching thing of the first three minutes was how glaringly obvious Harrison towered over Haye!

Hello Shaun

Just letting you know the (informal) rules on here.

BoxRec has its own news site so obviously we don't really want to be promoting other news sources all the time.

However, it's good for the forum readers, etc.

So, in short, you're allowed two links a week to stuff you do which seems to be a decent balance.

All best

I don't think Haye embarassed Harrison, I think Audley totally embarassed himself, his sport and his family.

How is he going to face his little girl after all she said about her daddy "bopping Haye on the nose" he didn't even do that once!

Least when Bob the Builder says "Yes he can" she can still at least believe him!!

Harrison didn't really do anything "wrong" for me. Apart from tell a lot of lies and bank another million. He gave no indication in his entire career to show he'd do anything other than what he did at the weekend. The mugs that bought it or watched it hoping for something else should have known better. I do have some sympathy for the people who don't really follow boxing, or new fans, that watched this hoping for something different. Sky also have promoted what they knew was a bag full of sh*t to the hilt. And the WBA did themselves no favours.
All in all it was a great steaming sh*t on the sport of boxing and nobody came out in a good light.
Harrison should take his money now and emigrate he's a national embarrassment.
