    Haye didnt throw ***** for 2 rounds either. His performance was just as disgraceful imo
    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.

        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.
        I do, i always do. Im not a fan but even before this Haye fight i stopped enjoying him lose. Just hang em up man!

          Anyone who wins an Olympic medal and comes back from a career ending injury should not be called a coward as Audley is.


          He just can't compete at the elite level, thats all.

              His next fight should be in a court for impersonating a heavyweight contender and collecting £1.5m by fraudulent means. Haye should also be in the dock with Murdoch Inc for promoting a snake oil fight.

                Audley didnt throw the fight it was a typical display but he was just more scared than normal. Just watch the interview after the fight he was mentaly wrecked.

                      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.
