Icke claimed to be the son of the big man upstairs. Audley merely has a hotline to him.

I would love to see hear him as a pundit, likeable guy and he comes up with the greatest lines

On Steve Bunce's radio show: "You know Steve if there's one thing about certainty, it's that nothing is certain" :lol:

I know we've all got our own preferences for pundits but while guys like McCrory, Nelson, Moore, Smith, etc are all pretty good, none of them seem naturals and all at times seem a wee bit awkward. The only fighter I've seen bed into the roll perfectly is wee Barry.

Harrison is an excellent talker, and if we can forget all that has gone before, a very likeable character. He's well spoken, knowledgeabe and given that in a few years we are likely to see our second ever Olympic heavyweight gold medalist turn pro how fitting would it be that the original version would be in place to cover it in part.

He'd be brilliant in my opinion, just need the silly f****r to retire first :(
I dont think anyone will like him as a pundit given his hyperbole and bragging as a pro and subsequent lack of achievement and falls against Haye and Price which were abject. He is too off the wall like Eubanks.

Its a terrible shame as Audley as a talker if he had fufilled his early talent and been a genuine rival to the Klitckchkos would have been tremendous for the HW scene in the 2000s.

As it is Audley as the look, the style, the intelligence and presence to be a low rent Don King in British terms. He really could be a tremendous promoter if he could get guys like DeGale,Haye (!), and HWs like Chisora,Big Larry and Groves on board along with other London talent. Audley as a promoter would be terrific i sincerely hope this guy who i still consider very impressive as a boxing "figure" rather than pro fighter goes down this path

Well hed start off with small shows on his home patch in London, and someone like Big Larry will fill those shows he's a puncher and punchers at HW are entertaining. I cant see him promoting a Ricky Hatton though

Larry isn't licenced and even if you are talking 4 years down the line. Not sure how many fans Larry still has after he disgraced himself.

I wouldn't pay to watch larry wildly attack a journeyman.
Very roar & unorthodox was larry & I never enjoyed watching him.but against step ups like McDermott I was intrigued to see how they would handle larry & deal with his rushes .
