Don't know how pathetic this makes me, but I was looking at Audrey Harrison's profile just now and apparently it was his birthday yesterday. The big 33!

I hope I can claim to have defended the WBF twice by the time I'm 33.

I take it we're not going to see him 'till next year, what with his jippy hand?

I heard he's retiring from boxing to become Matt Skelton's cornerman

I may be wrong but wasnt Harrison 32 when he won olympic gold, this has bugged me for months. He must be at least 35 by now as he seems to have been 32yrs old for the past 3 years.

Audley was 28 when he won Olympic gold BUT there is a logical explanation why the number 32 is in your head. The number was constantly being banded about at the same time WHY?

Something to do with him gonna be undisputed heavyweight champ or something?
C'mon, he's got the WBF, what d'you want, blood?

I, his own website says he's just turned 33. First 'pro' fight was April 2001, when he'd be 29?...

As a by the by, I thought I heard somewhere that the WBF had folded (a sad day for all if this is the case) and by that I mean the WBFoundation as opposed to the WBFederation, after they somehow quietly changed the name!? What's Audrey going to do if this is the case? WBE intercontinental polar expedition title?[/quote]

No, nowt to do with that. It's connected to the Olympics.
