    Having heard the Audley Story, has your opinion of him changed?

    Im sure by now a lot of you have heard the full Audley Story. About how his BBC contract not being renewed then having to fight with Frank Warren left him broken and led him to lose his love for the game.

    Having heard him speak lately and come into the spotlight, has your opinion of him changed at all?

    For me, i never hated Audley. But lately ive genuinely started liking the dude!
    He gets asked time after time about his heart his chin his desire etc. But he answers every question respectfully and honestly. He has never contradicted himself and from the day he turned pro hes maintained his ''destiny'' thing. He admits his own short comings aswel, which not many others do. Moreover some of his interviews are just plainly hilarious as HELL. You cant hate the guy lol.

    Has your opinion of him changed lately?

    p.s. i KNOW lots of you are saying its a garbage fight he doesnt deserve a shot etc there's hundreds of threads regarding that so can we not have comments about THAT please. thank you.

    The BBC contract wasn't renewed because he was so god-awful in all the fights of his that they screened. As a direct result of those terrible fights, in which he looked terrified of being hit the whole time, despite fighting a series of tomato cans, the BBC pulled out of boxing completely, because they had thrown a lot of money at Harrison and the viewing figures had been terrible. So Harrison has a lot to answer for.

      I gained a lot of respect for him after a fight he had turned into a riot. He made his best effort to calm people down.

        If he wants to shut up the haters, then he has to pull of the huge upset. BTW, I don't know how good Audley's current trainer is.
