Auldley is having a press confernce on thursday regarding his next opponent and contest for his first title shot.anybody know what title it is?

maybe he's chris byrds next opponent

i wouldn't rule out a southern area title fight

A title fight eh......Anyone who holds the WNN North American Interim belt at the moment?

Is the Southern Area title vacant? I think it is.

There's not many who are worthy challengers, have a look down the rankings.

Oops, sorry don't quite know what i was pressing back there

Mmm. I wondered what his next move would be. A title nowadays could man anything. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes for the Southern Area title (as Flawed Genius mentioned), made vacant by Michael Sprott's British title win over the weekend.

Welcome to boxrec hide remember me. Good to hear about Audley going for a title, I would expect Southern Area as I remember him talking about it before christmas telling the BBC that just after he announced the Nix fight. But I would be pleasently suprised if he announced British and Commonwealth, however that is pretty much out of the question because Sprott aint had time to do anything. Cheers anyways hide where did u hear this.

on Audleys site

Oh bugger. As soon as I left I went and looked and thought what a div I must look nice one hide.

Wouldn't surprise me if it was the Southern Area against Garry Delaney, unless Delaney manages to hit the cruiser limit for Enzo which is no cert.

Southern Area? All those fights against good stepping stne calibre fighters and respected journeymen, and he wants the SOUTHERN AREA??

At the very least, Audley needs to plough straight into a British title shot. AT THE VERY LEAST. He is BEYOND READY for this standard. he will destroy Sprott. but now what? audley blows out a colin kenna type in 1 and wins a pointless title that is recognised as the lowest of the low? then what? DEFENDS IT?

WHATS THE POINT???

Riddick, you don't seem to understand....

Audley will have to make a deal with allegedly in order to get near Sprott, Sprott is signed to sports network, and I think it will be very difficult for him to get a title shot as it stands. Audley wants to stay with the BBC, allegedly would like to sign him to fight on sky, and it appears that never the twain shall meet.

It is a dream to see either Herbie Hide, or Samil Sam sat next to him tomorow. I think those are 2 fights that can be made easily provided both parties are up for it, unfortunately Herbie may not be anymore.

mate i know how it works. i momentarily forgot sprott was now with SN.

didn't warren say he's ok with purse bids in an envelope deal when talking about a possible audley vs skelton? although realstically he wouldn't have the guts.

IMO Audley is the best HW in the Country.

I'd like to see him fight Williams or Sprott, but I dont think Warren will take the fight unless he has options on Audley.

IMO Audley would knock Hides head off.

It would be nice to see Audley win the British title and I feel he will be a HW who we can back against the US HW prospects with some confidence.

What about Audley v Wayne Llewellyn for the Southern Area Title?

Nice idea from a guy with a nice name, I have a lot of time for Llewelyn and although I believe Aud would beat him I reckon it would be a step up from Nix. Although Llewelyn is way below Nix in World terms I think he is a little better, he holds a victory over Sprotty and has had 30 fights.

Sorry Riddick that wasn't meant to be patronising.

Does anyone know what Audley's British ranking is with the BBBofC at the moment? Presumably if he wins the vacant southern area title, and goes on to become mandatory contender (should he be bothered about such a thing, personally I don't see the point), then there is no way that he could be prevented for fighting for the title, as it would go to purse bids.

what's the deal with audley's 3 fight contract with espn? he's only had one fight as part of the deal. is he going to have his 2 more?

I don't think it's a bad thing Harrison fighting for the Southern Area, just as long as he doesn't then start making pointless defences against journeymen.

If I were a fighter I'd definitely want to win my area title.

It's a bit confusing, at first I thought that only one of those 3 fights was part of the deal, but last I heard, I seem to recall him saying that he had finished his contract with ESPN, and may or may not be resigning with them.....possibly they changed their minds due to Audley's performances?

I'm a bit confused myself. Audley did indicate recently that although he is back in the UK, he will be campaigning in the states again....anyone got any further info.

Audley's website is one of the better ones out there btw

Audley informed us (Im on his website forum as well) that he has come back to take care of some domestic competition and that he will go back to the USA to wrap up the ESPN deal when the Olympics and Euro cup is on. Good idea if you ask me it means he can finish off the ESPN deal with some top names. Hope that answered your question james (top name by the way.)

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Southampton's Colin Kenna.

He lost to Sprott, how the hell does he think he can beat the A-Force

He won't. That's why I think it will be him.
I believe since being banged out by Sprott, Kenna's put together a win or two to get himself back in the frame, and who else is out there for Audley! Everyone else is tied to Sports Network.
