Audley Harrison for me
I can handle Ruiz and Byrd. Byrd fights like he does b/c he just don't have the power to hurt the bigger heavyweights. Ruiz fights like he does b/c he just... well, has no skills. But they both win more than lose b/c they'll do whatever their skills allow them to do to win. Byrd slaps and runs while Ruiz jabs and holds but at least they try to do what they think will get them a victory. This doesn't take away from the boringness of their fights but at least they try to win.
Audley Harrision has the size, speed and built to be a very good heavyweight. He doesn't even try to win, though. He's blessed with all this raw talent and doesn't care about using it, which means he doesn't care about his fans... the people that are paying to watch him dance around the ring and only throw one simi-power shot per round.
I just wish people with heart like the Byrds and Ruizs would be blessed with the talent and size that Audley Harrision has- then you'd probably see better fights.
Oh, and this is my first post although I've been reading what you guys think about boxing for a while now. Justin's the name- this is the first site where people actually know and talk boxing- it's refreshing.
