Anyone else feel sorry for Audley Harrison?

[Trigg]

The only people i feel for are the fans who shelled out for tickets and bought the PPV, the whole event was ****.

And the division isn't going to get better anytime soon, Wlad v Chisora? Cant wait (insert sarcasm).

Ok so he was a disappointment who wrecked boxing on the BBC and made millions of pounds out of a poor career, I have always laughed at him when he is interviewed but after the weekend i felt sorry for him.
He got utterly humiliated and the crowed were singing your **** and you know you are, he looked destroyed in the interview after the fight and most of the british casual fans hate him especially the ones that paid for the fight. I couldn’t imagine what its like to have half the people in your own country hating you. I just had to feel a bit sorry for him even though he made loads of money out of the fight.

Yes i agree.... he put on a lousy performance.... but even mike tyson said that aduleys actually a real nice guy. that performance was terrible and afer mouthing off he showed zero aggression and guts but still he doesnt deserve the hate he gets

his wife and daughter flew from usa to watch that fight and they had to endure those chants as did his brother and his dad. i know if that was my son or brother it would be very painfull

not nice to hear that at all and if i was him i wouldnt be able to show my face around in london because most of what he has done olypmics ect is overshadowed by that performance.... your only as good as your last fight

and after he got his i felt very bad 4 him

If you can't handle the pressure, don't fight

If you're gonna be a *****, don't fight

If you're scared to fight, don't fight

If you can't handle the criticism, don't fight

Nobody made him get into the ring, nobody told him act like a *****, and nobody made him sign the fight and get his paycheck.

Absolutely zero pity. The only one I felt sorry for this weekend was Margarito. He gave it everything he had, from day 1 to fight night, and it still wasn't enough. That's tragic, when somebody wants something so bad and they do everything for it and they still can't get it.

Audley did give it everything he threw a jab, I am not talking about his performance i am talking about how is utterly hated in the UK, what ever Audley does everyone hates him.

Yeah if I was him I wouldn’t go into London he would get **** from anyone who knew his face, he may have put up a poor performance but anyone that knows Audley knew that was going to happen, Audley is basically expelled from the country now.

[MOTHER DUCKER]

No... you know he lives in America with his wife right?

He just earned 1.5m... and already was rich.. he need never set foot in this **** country again anyway so why should he care?

Also you can all say he isn't in Hayes class... so what? there has been plenty of upsets in boxing before.. but he never even tried.. just once pityful jab.. come on

haye did all he could to make it exiting, his mistake was soley in the choice of oponent (which cant be excused). he was fightign a lefty with a massive reach, that means getting close enough to land is a risk so he needs to take the early rounds to study his oponent before going to work. he threw some feints and jabks at him to see how he reacted in the first, walked him down and let go of some right hands in the second then put it all together and finished hi in the third. had he not been fighting a bum it wouldve been a great performance.


as for harrison i do feel bad for him, this sport is harder then fans can even imagine. a guy like audley is still ten times tougher then the average man, yet the average man looks down on him. dumbasses who never set foot in a boxing ring run their mouth how they couldve done what he did when in reality they couldnt, even what little he did.

so audley still deserves some respect i dont care what anyone says, he was outclassed and seemd intimidated from the first bell but most ppl wouldnt even get in the ring to hear the first bell. then he gets knocked out and booed out of the building, not fair. i believe he did try to win he just doesnt know how to fight as a pro, especially at this level.

he should be remembered as a guy who tried and failed miserably in the pro ranks, but still get props for trying. instead ppl will dissrespect him and act like they are tougher than him without having the balls to find out. atleast audley was willing to find out.

By not throwing any punches?
