Comments Thread For: Audley Says He Agreed To Face Wilder on Khan-Diaz

[Sparked_26]

Intriguing fight.

And as a big Audley fan I fully expect him to shit himself and get KO'd in 1.

Calling it now, Wilder puts him away and gets accused of fighting bums and cans and of being a hypejob. The only reason he'll win is because Audley took the fight on short notice.

I never thought I'd actually be rooting for Audley again.

Of course, he has no chance. As wild as Wilder is, he'll hit hard enough to give Audley fits. Expect those A-Farce eyes to be popping out of his skull in fear as the opening bell rings, as they were vs Price, and a near-defenseless static Audley to just muddle around for a few seconds before being badly hurt by the first meaningful shot.

Audley has the experience to beat Wilder. Unless I am mistaken, Wilder has knocked out all of his very limited opponents with a straight right hand. Wilder's only strength is that he has a dangerous straight right hand, and that's it. Audley has the experience to use footwork and avoid putting himself in the position where Wilder can land that big straight right hand. Audley can beat Wilder if he fights smart.

As others have alluded to, it depends which Audley turns up - stage fright Audley, or WAR-DLEY! Wilder has the big right hand but he telegraphs his punches!

I've criticised Audley plenty in the past but I've grown to like him as his faith is unshakeable. When Audley believes, part of me does as well

YES HE CAN

Which is exactly what would be the case.

A-force to rise from the ashes and beat down young Deontay in 5.

I hope Wilder win (I think he will). We don't need another young prospect taken out. It's bad for the division.

this is a fight audley could actually win. beck & manswell are journeymen & are the 2 best guys wilder has faced. i never saw the sconiers fight but from my understanding he got dropped. i don't know if it was a flash KD or one that hurt him but he still got dropped by harold sconiers. after the manswell fight wilder gave that ridiculous post fight rant that you could tell he practiced in the mirror a few times. ever since then i've kind of thought he was trying to hard to get noticed. audley has skill & he is the best opponent to date for wilder. he is big & he is a southpaw with knockout power. i don't think wilder has experienced this kind of opponent yet. harrison won prizefighter & has taken fights that others wouldn't. guys were not lining up to fight price or wilder & he was willing to take the fights. he has been brutally KO'd a few times & always shrugged it off & continued on. this is the one fight that i think he has a chance but as others have said...can he avoid sh**ting the bed? i hope the fight gets made...if audley somehow wins this fight he will be within striking distance of another meaningful fight. last time he won prizefighter he followed it up with a european title that led to a title shot. harrison has absolutely nothing to lose & everything to gain...

[joe strong]

i give harrison a little credit. olympic gold medal, european title, 2 time prizefighter champion, challenged for a world title, etc. i think he underachieved but i don't think his career was a complete failure. i seen most of his fights & he isn't that bad but he is just not the fighter everyone thought he was going to be. there have been many olympic medalists who had mediocre careers. he is not the first nor will he be the last...
