Well actually, if you had seen the video of Dimitrenko calling out Harrison, you would know that it is him who is in possestion of the sledgehammer, not Audley.
Adamek would win this fight pretty easily.

audley offers nothing to adamek, who has done more in 3 weights than audley has done in one weight.

Yeah, Adamek is a much better version of Rogan, IMO. And look how much Rogan's style troubled Audley. Adamek would stop him in the middle rounds.

not sure i get the rogan-adamek comparison, dioufy!
adamek was an accomplished amateur, winning a european amateur bronze in the same year that darchinyan, diaconu, sidorenko, fragomeni and dzinziruk got medals (all of whom became future world champs as pros).
rogan is a taxi driver who won the first prize fighter after only a few pro fights. basically a very tough bloke, but not a top class boxer.

Yeah, I suppose. My comparison relates to the fact that they fight near enough the same. Both like to pressure fight and both put it all on the line.

adamek certainly has put it all on the line a few times. he's my fave fighter in the sport due to his willingness to put it on the line at light heavyweight (briggs), cruiserweight (bell, cunningham, banks) and heavyweight (arreola, and perhaps sam peter next).

Adamek would see Harrison's punches coming. Harrison would not be able to deal with Adamek's offence. I think it's quite straight forward.

Audley won't beat Dimitrenko do......
Why is Audley getting talked about in big fights? Going into the 12th he was losing on every score card to Sprott, who is near Journyman level. And managed to land a shot on a tired Sprott.....
Before the KO, he looked very average and showed no signs of being world class. Audley would beat no one in the top 10 imo.

Dimitrenko looked pretty dire to me, when I saw him against Chambers. I think Audley would have a chance against him.

Nah.....Dimitrenko just had a real bad off night. At his best his takes Audleuy apart.
And it's not like Audley has never looked dire. At least Dimitrenko was beat by a world class fighter.

I want to say he has absolutely zero chance against any world class operator, but who knows, the guy blows cold, colder, slightly hot and then colder still.
How do you gauge someone like Audely, he was making Sprott look like a clubfighter before getting caught the first time around, then got himself whitewashed in the return before pulling it out of the fire in the twelfth. He's completely unpredictable.
Against Dimitrenko, nevermind Adamek, he's got a puncher's chance and that's it, that's all I could ever pin to his cause based on his choppy form.
Don't fancy him against Dimitrenko, nor Adamek. They'd both KO him, probably... outside of a puncher's chance.
That said, I still haven't given up on him completely, it's not rational, I just find myself willing him on every time i watch him fight. He's like a race car that shows up looking like a million bucks but you never know what's under the hood until he gets going, I keep hoping that one day the interior matches the exterior although deep down I'm pretty sure it'll never happen for him.

Looking dire against a world class fighter like Chambers who has tons of speed and defensive abilities is a bit different then looking dire against a shot Michael Sprott. Of course Audley has a chance, but personally I would favor Dimitrenko.

Dimitrenko losing to Chambers means nothing. Chambers would beat Audley just as comfortably as he beat Dimitrenko, even more so.
Audley has yet to beat a top guy. His best win to date is against a fat Danny Williams who took the fight at a weeks notice.
Adamek would beat Audley with ease.
