Comments Thread For: Audley: A Shame I Have To Go Through Deontay Wilder

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Audley Harrison believes his professional career will mimic his amateur one and end with world title glory. The 41-year-old heavyweight has endured a turbulent time since stepping into the paid ranks after winning Olympic gold in 2000.

The Londoner has lost six times as a pro including his only world-title fight against David Haye in 2010.

He was widely written off after failing to survive the first round against David Price last October.

But, reinvigorated by success in the recent Prizefighter competition, Harrison has refused to give up on his dream and believes he is following a path he has taken before.

Harrison, who returns to the ring against unbeaten American Deontay Wilder in Sheffield on Saturday, said: "I am probably down as one of Britain's best-ever amateur boxers - Olympic gold, Commonwealth gold, two-time amateur champion - but there was so much failure in that process.

Its not the losses why we wrote Audley off its the way he lost them.

He doesnt throw punches and he cowers when someone comes forward.

Deontay will ko him in at least 5 rounds . Bet ya !

Audley looks like a new boxer, full of potential until Wilder lands the first right hand and then he turns into a deer caught in headlights. i think Wilder puts on a show and KO's Audley in 4 or 5 rounds.

Exactly this ^^^^.

Its just a shame he's always so tentative in the BIG fights. Wilder will come out throwing bombs; if Audley does the same, he stands a chance. If he cowers by the ropes, he'll get KOd.

And here we are again, the nightly ritual. . . . White sport socked feet hanging over one end of the sofa, the t.v flickers onto closed drooped eyelids.

"Come on Audley, it's time to be put to bed".

"No. No mum. I'm. . . I'm not tired. I'm just resting my eyes. Honest".

Audley's a strange cat. He takes his setbacks well though; almost too well.
