That's a real cross roads fight.

Guinn is 1-3-1 in his last 5 fights and has been pretty much found out not to be the prospect he was once touted just like Audley.

Battle of the Underachievers

This will be more about Guinns decline that Aud's ascendency though.

This is still a decent name and opponent for Aubrey if this fight materialises though. It's a no lose for him in more ways than it would be taking the Gammer fight.

I certainly won't be watching, as 'Parcel Force' has offended me as a fight fan with his spineless showing in his last 'fight' (I use that term very loosely), but it's a tough one to pick the winner of.

Harrison has zero balls & Guinn is massively overrated.

It will come down to who has the biggest balls, so Guinn will probably win, as Harrison has none! :o

Its on ESPN so I doubt we'll get it live over here. In all honesty the only reason I would want to see it is hoping Harrison gets knocked the fook out.

If Guinn has anything left I think he'll beat Harrison. He wasn't afraid to get up close against Toney taking leather so he'll at least get in Harrison's face you'd think.

And whatever anyones thoughts on Guinn he has beaten better fighters than Harrison has. Dokiwari and Grant are far better than anyone Harrison has beaten.

Guinn may not be the fighter he was being hyped to be, but if he has something left he will easily despatch Audley. Actually if he employs the same fight plan as he did against Toney. It might be an early night.

I await to see both in the ring, very interesting contest if it happens. A couple of years back I would have said Guinn easy, but despite the Williams performance Guinn was clearly overhyped and I think Harrison will start as the favourite, but I do like Guinn to nail Harrison.

Guinn's been awful of late, but surely no worse than Danny Williams in December.

Guinn is the American Audley, he throws less punches than Audley, this will set records for the least punches thrown in a televised fight, AUdley UD - the A Force is back

Guinn is shot to pieces and Audley will be motivated to prove everyone wrong
Audley will bust him up and stop him in the middle rounds.

I wouldn't exactly say a win for Audley puts him back in the hunt for anything but maybe a tertiary belt. He'll never be good enough or have the balls to beat the tops in the division.

How is Guinn shot to pieces? He is just not as good as people thought he was but he is not shot. If he was shot to pieces he couldn't have gone toe to toe with Toney for 12 rounds. He took a lot of shots against Toney a shot fighter would have been knocked out. He was simply overrated and has now lost confidence. I still think he can beat Harrison.

His voice has slurred alarmingly and he has looked so gun-shy in his last few fights.Its not as if Toney is a concussive hitter and his conditioning that night should have led Guinn not to stay on the inside and get bossed. His younger body should have been fresher, and his finely honed body should have given him strength and vitality in later rounds should it have been necessary when on the other hand he lost every round apart from maybe 3 in the first 5.

Guinns always been a 10 punch a round fighter with little ring smarts.

Who destroyed Guinn Monte Barret :lol:

Audleys massive size will be the deciding factor, Guinn won`t have the confidence now he did when he faced Grant.

All that would make Guinn think is, 'There's more of the spineless con man to hit!' :o

Harrison has zero stamina; a few body shots from Guinn & he'll be a goner.

As far as I am concerned he is a wanker you cant make that much noise about how good you are then put in an effort like that. Everyone is entitled to an off night but this was more than that the guy was frightened to get hit against a fat out of shape Williams. I've always thought Harrison's confidence and belief were a bit of a facade, its just never seemed genuine to me and the Williams fight would indicate that is the case.

This is a MASSIVE fight for Audley and its a tough one, Guinn has better wins than Audley on his record and although hes lost a few at the top level hes not been outclassed (maybe other than the Toney fight). Hopefully we'll see Guinn try and pressure Audley, so we can see if December 10th was an off night for Audley, he always seems to fight better when hes in the US.


Guinn is in for a right fornicating hiding, hes going to feel the full force of the December 10th backlash.

I reckon Audley makes a few style and aggression amendments, then comes out on April 14th and makes a statement. It'll be great to see the BIG man back in the ring again :D

Come on Audley!!!!

:D :D :D

Real 50-50 fight this one, you have to say if Harrison loses he should call it a day.
