Audley and Williams.
Posted: 15 Dec 2003, 21:03
I know its an ancient topic, but hopefully the question I'll ask will have a different slant to it.
I've been doing a little forum on HH's forum and I read the suggestion (that was agreed by a few British posters) that Harrison would have a 50:50 chance against Ruiz. Yes, I admit the heavyweight devision is poor.
However, if I (and I have done in the past on other forums
) come up with the prediction that Danny Williams will have a 50:50 chance to beat Ruiz, people would laugh at me.
So I put it do the forum, does anybody (else) still thinks Danny even has a chance with Harrison. What as Audley done that so blooming impressive, that good posters think Audley could beat Ruiz but if someone proposed for Danny Williams vs Ruiz to happen the poster would be slaughtered. Okay, I'll give him his dues on his last performance, but in the likes of Meehan, Danny has beaten oppoenents of better ability than Nix.
Its possibly the most dramatic U turn I have seen, absence makes the heart grow fonder and it seems that Audley's absence from UK shores has made him discussed MUCH more positively. Last time was the only time I thought, okay he's beaten someone of top ten DOMESTIC callibre now.
So is Danny Williams vs Audley Harrison now considered pretty much a foregone conclusion (for Harrison) as little as two months ago, people would have said not and probably the slight majority of hardcore fans would have gone for a Williams win.
Now it appears that some people believe Harrison is above Williams, I can't see that myself.
